NPM install dies without specific error

I'm trying to set up a fresh install on ubuntu 16.04. When I run npm install --production it gets most of the way through then returns to the command prompt. There isn't a specific error message. There is the last few lines with the --verbose option

This could be due to your machine not having enough memory. Try increasing the swap size.
