Why do TSLint and JSLint report empty blocks?
Why does TSLint report above empty block as problem
To prevent mistakes. Perhaps the function was forgotten to be filled out. Recommend () => undefined as a noop.

If you want to disable it simply add "no-empty": false, to your tslint.json (globally disable) or disable it inline using a /* tslint:disable:no-empty */ comment.
As with all checks, you have the ultimate judgement on whether they are helping you or not. You can switch off this TSLint check using one of the following options.
Disable the rule in tslint.json
//..."no-empty": false,//...Disable the rule in the file:
/* tslint:disable:no-empty */You can always switch it back on again if sometime in the future you find an empty block that has caused you a problem.
A way to suppress the error and designate that empty block was intentionally is to disable the rule temporary:
// tslint:disable-next-line:no-emptydoSomething(() => {});Or make it non-empty:
doSomething(() => {/**/});
