FATAL ERROR: Ineffective mark-compacts near heap limit Allocation failed - JavaScript heap out of memory

[michaelhly]

Describe the bug
Trying to generate a typescript client off of the spec here:
https://raw.githubusercontent.com/MystenLabs/sui/main/sui/open_rpc/spec/openrpc.json

Heap limit is exceeded even after increasing max memory usage for Node:

export NODE_OPTIONS=--max_old_space_size=16384

To Reproduce

yarn --verbose open-rpc-generator generate -d https://raw.githubusercontent.com/MystenLabs/sui/main/sui/open_rpc/spec/openrpc.json -o ./generated -l typescript -t client -n tsclient

Here is a REPL environment to reproduce the issue:
https://replit.com/@MichaelHuang10/FearfulWelloffLeadership#openrpc.json

Expected behavior
Generate a typescript client.

Desktop (please complete the following information):

• OS: macOS
• Version: Monterey 12.3.1
• Node: v14.17.1

[michaelhly]

Perhaps some validation to prevent this behavior could help?

[shanejonas]

hm looks like an issue with a cycle, MoveTypeLayout and TypeTag both ref themselves.

[patrickkuo]

Thanks @shanejonas !
Should the generator be able to handle cyclic refs? If not, do you know what is the right way/workaround to model this in the schema?

[danielvladco]

Hello, any progress on this issue?

Looks like the cycle references are not handled correctly

Experiencing the exact same issue with SUI (blockchain)'s openrpc specification. https://gist.github.com/RdeWilde/b6ec9c3c9e0b921d496e4553b5935300
