From personal experience, Webpack builds are very RAM intensive, can easily consume a gigabyte+ of RAM if you’re not careful. It would be best to build locally and upload the artifacts to Toolforge.

How long does your build take locally? It might be timing out on toolforge. If you're simply hosting static files, it might be easier to build on Github CI and then just wget the built artifact into `$HOME/www/static` (https://wikitech.wikimedia.org/wiki/Help:Toolforge/Web#Serving_static_files).

Hi,
Is it allowed to build a webpack app in Toolforge environment?
I'm asking because I tried to build an Agular app (old ng) for Wiki Loves Monuments and failed. I did found this instructions: https://wikitech.wikimedia.org/wiki/Help:Toolforge/Node.js#Running_npm_with_... And Node18 was installed OK, running `npm i` was OK, but my build failed.
My steps:
become zabytki # install webservice --backend=kubernetes node18 shell # clone (or pull) mkdir ~/testrepo cd ~/testrepo git clone https://github.com/Eccenux/wlm-zabytki-mapa.git ./ # build npm i npm run build-prodAnd that last part fails at 92%:
92% sealing asset processing TerserPlugin*Killed*
The build-prod script is defined as: webpack --progress --mode production --env=prod The webpack script is here: https://github.com/Eccenux/wlm-zabytki-mapa/blob/master/webpack.config.js
Would be grateful for any pointers. For now I'm building locally and deploying assets to github (so that I can skip the build step on Toolforge), but when I'm on vacation setting up build env is a complication I'd like to avoid :)
