Allowed memory size of 1610612736 bytes exhausted (tried to allocate 4096 bytes)


If you have experienced this error "Allowed memory size of 1610612736 bytes exhausted (tried to allocate 4096 bytes) " by running composer require command, here is the solution.

Actually there is couple things that you can do in this case: change memory_limit in your php.ini file, or change COMPOSER_MEMORY_LIMIT=-1  but the fastest way is just to run this command:
COMPOSER_MEMORY_LIMIT=-1 composer require your/package
and that is it!
