how to use the emptyerror function from the rxjs library in javascript

To use the EmptyError function from the rxjs library, you need to import it:

index.tsx
import { EmptyError } from 'rxjs';

Then, you can throw an EmptyError if an observable completes without emitting any values:

index.tsx
import { Observable, EmptyError } from 'rxjs';

const observable = new Observable(observer => {
  observer.complete();
});

observable.subscribe({
  error: error => {
    if (error instanceof EmptyError) {
      console.log('Observable completed without emitting any values');
    } else {
      console.log('Other error occurred', error);
    }
  }
});

In the above code, we are creating an observable that completes immediately without emitting any values. When we subscribe to this observable, we're checking for the specific EmptyError type of error and logging a message accordingly.
