Angular-cli AOT build fails with "FATAL ERROR: CALL_AND_RETRY_LAST Allocation failed - JavaScript heap out of memory"

Question

I am trying to build my angular-cli project with AOT

ng build --aot

but it failes with error

"FATAL ERROR: CALL_AND_RETRY_LAST Allocation failed - JavaScript heap out of memory"

The same thing happens if I build with the --prod flag.

Any idea?

The usual reason are: The build machine is running out of RAM, or there is a cyclic module dependency. — S.D., Mar 12 '18 at 09:27

Meanwhile, as a workaround, you can try specifying the max_old_space_size setting (in MB)

node --max_old_space_size=4096 ./node_modules/@angular/cli/bin/ng build --prod

Where i have to set this ..? – kishan oza Mar 12 '18 at 08:49
in your console, instead of typing `ng build --prod` – David Mar 12 '18 at 08:50
Its give me an error in code like "Property 'pattern' does not exist on type '{ [key: string]: any; }'." – kishan oza Mar 12 '18 at 09:12
if i run normally ng serve its not give me error but in this its give me error – kishan oza Mar 12 '18 at 09:13
Probably because now you don't have the memory issue anymore it fails further along the build process – David Mar 12 '18 at 09:24

npm install

node --max_old_space_size=8048 ./node_modules/@angular/cli/bin/ng serve
