During our PR workflow, we are receiving: FATAL ERROR: Ineffective mark-compacts near heap limit Allocation failed - JavaScript heap out of memory

This is the GitHub hook we have created:

What can cause this issue?

[cktang88]

also having this issue

[yshrsmz]

looks like it fails to run npm install --legacy-peer-deps

It should be fixed by #72

[smarti57]

So I just ran into a seemingly similar issue (very similar trace). Do we know if this has been fixed in the latest release?

I ran into a similar issue and used the node_options to increase the memory limit for my package.json scripts. That is why I created a pull request #119 which allows you to set the node_options environment variable for eslint.
