I am trying to install Laravel/Dusk on a laravel 5.4 application.

The command that I am running is, according to the documentation: https://laravel.com/docs/5.4/dusk

composer require laravel/dusk

The output in terminal: 

Using version ^1.0 for laravel/dusk
./composer.json has been updated
Loading composer repositories with package information
Updating dependencies (including require-dev)
  - Installing facebook/webdriver (1.3.0)
    Loading from cache

  - Installing laravel/dusk (v1.0.10)
    Downloading: 100%
Killed

That Killed is what's bothering. So, the package is being added to my composer.json file but no files can be found in vendor/laravel/dusk

I am trying to install this on my webhost and not on my local environment.

Any ideas?

The error is due to your machine on the host running out of memory, like described on this thread: https://github.com/composer/composer/issues/1815

So you may have to increase the performance on your account to be able to run more composer commands from your webhost.
