From 6a36fc3ba8d0c9616cb30e3526f2c7dafc8f6525 Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: martmull Date: Thu, 25 Jun 2026 11:21:51 +0200 Subject: [PATCH] fix(sdk): evict compiled manifest modules from require cache in dev mode (#22129) MIME-Version: 1.0 Content-Type: text/plain; charset=UTF-8 Content-Transfer-Encoding: 8bit ## Problem `yarn twenty dev` crashes after running for a while with: ``` FATAL ERROR: Reached heap limit Allocation failed - JavaScript heap out of memory ``` The crash happens during the **Manifest Build** phase, after the process has been up for a long time (~35 min in the reported case) — the signature of a slow memory leak in the long-running watch process, not a single oversized operation. Fixes the issue described in `core-team-issues#2560`. ## Root cause `manifest-extract-config-from-file.ts``loadModule()` compiles each entity file with esbuild (`bundle: true`, so the whole dependency graph is inlined), writes it to a unique `mkdtemp` directory, and loads it with `appRequire(tempFile)`. `createRequire` shares Node's global module cache (`Module._cache`), so **every loaded temp module is retained in the require cache forever**. Two things made this unbounded: 1. `mkdtemp` generates a fresh random directory each call, so cache keys never collide — entries purely accumulate. 2. The `finally` block removed the temp dir **from disk** but never evicted the `require.cache` entry, so the evaluated, fully-bundled module object stayed pinned in the JS heap. In dev mode the orchestrator re-runs `buildManifest` on **every** file change and watcher rebuild (`scheduleSync()`), and each rebuild compiles & `require()`s ~one module per entity file (53 in the reported case). Over a session of editing, thousands of large bundled module objects pile up in `require.cache` until V8's heap is exhausted → FATAL OOM. ## Fix Delete the temp module from the require cache after loading it, so memory stays bounded to a single rebuild. Because `bundle: true` inlines the whole graph, the temp module is the only cache entry per load, so deleting it lets the bundled object be GC'd. ```ts } finally { delete appRequire.cache[tempFile]; await remove(tempDir); } ``` ## Test Adds a regression test (`manifest-extract-config-from-file.spec.ts`) that runs `extractManifestFromFile` repeatedly and asserts no `twenty-manifest` temp modules accumulate in the require cache. https://claude.ai/code/session_0168hN9yEYvjZbqdz7PckKn8 --- _Generated by [Claude Code](https://claude.ai/code/session_0168hN9yEYvjZbqdz7PckKn8)_ Review in cubic --- .../manifest-extract-config-from-file.spec.ts | 43 +++++++++++++++++++ .../manifest-extract-config-from-file.ts | 36 +++++++++++----- 2 files changed, 68 insertions(+), 11 deletions(-) create mode 100644 packages/twenty-sdk/src/cli/utilities/build/manifest/__tests__/manifest-extract-config-from-file.spec.ts diff --git a/packages/twenty-sdk/src/cli/utilities/build/manifest/__tests__/manifest-extract-config-from-file.spec.ts b/packages/twenty-sdk/src/cli/utilities/build/manifest/__tests__/manifest-extract-config-from-file.spec.ts new file mode 100644 index 0000000000..641cdd21a8 --- /dev/null +++ b/packages/twenty-sdk/src/cli/utilities/build/manifest/__tests__/manifest-extract-config-from-file.spec.ts @@ -0,0 +1,43 @@ +import { createRequire } from 'module'; +import { join } from 'path'; + +import { MINIMAL_APP_PATH } from '@/cli/__tests__/apps/fixture-paths'; +import { extractManifestFromFile } from '@/cli/utilities/build/manifest/manifest-extract-config-from-file'; +import { type ApplicationConfig } from '@/sdk/define'; + +describe('extractManifestFromFile', () => { + const filePath = join(MINIMAL_APP_PATH, 'application.config.ts'); + + it('extracts the default-exported config from a bundled entity file', async () => { + const result = await extractManifestFromFile({ + filePath, + appPath: MINIMAL_APP_PATH, + }); + + expect(result.config.displayName).toBe('Root App'); + }, 60000); + + // Regression test for the dev-mode OOM crash: bundled entity modules used to be + // written to disk and required, leaking one fully-bundled module per file into + // the require cache on every rebuild.
