Solution

Remove the oom action code after node_modules was installed.

package.json

{
    "scripts": {
        "postinstall": "node fixColors.js"
    }
}

fixColors.js

const path = require('path');
const fixColorsOom = require('fix-colors-out-of-memory');
const nodeModulesFolder = path.join(__dirname, 'node_modules');

fixColorsOom.fixFolder(nodeModulesFolder);

// or fix target file path
fixColorsOom.fixFile(path.join(__dirname, 'node_modules/colors/lib/index.js'));
