I have installed this package success locally composer require spatie/laravel-image-optimizer
, but when I tried to install on the live server I got this errors<
You should not call composer require
or composer update
on production server - you should run it locally, verify that everything works fine, and commit generated composer.lock
with your project. Then on production server you need to run only composer install --no-dev
- it will install all non-dev dependencies defined in lock file. composer install
is much faster and uses fraction of RAM required by composer require
or composer update
, so it should work fine even on server with low memory. It also gives you more control on version of libraries installed on production server, so you can test app more reliable.
Your problem is related to the probable fact of having only 1gb of RAM and not having memory swap, so let's create and enable it to take some time off at the time of composer execution.
Folow this steps:
1) Creating 1gb memory swapfile:
$ sudo fallocate -l 1G /swapfile
$ sudo dd if=/dev/zero of=/swapfile bs=1024 count=1048576
This command created the
/swapfile
file with 1GB in size.
2) Configuring file to swap:
$ sudo chmod 600 /swapfile
$ sudo mkswap /swapfile
3) Enable swap:
$ sudo swapon /swapfile
To see result you can run free -m
or see on htop
Example: $ sudo free -m
total usada livre compart. buff/cache disponível
Mem.: 7664 1052 3436 56 3175 6259
Swap: 1024 0 1024
Example: $ sudo swapon --show
NAME TYPE SIZE USED PRIO
/swapfile file 1G 0B -2
Test please.
