### What it does

Enforces that named import blocks are not empty.

### Why is this bad?

Empty named imports serve no practical purpose and often
result from accidental deletions or tool-generated code.

### Examples

Examples of **incorrect** code for this rule:

```js
import {} from "mod";
import Default from "mod";
```

Examples of **correct** code for this rule:

```js
import { mod } from "mod";
import Default, { mod } from "mod";
```

## How to use

To **enable** this rule using the config file or in the CLI, you can use:

::: code-group

```json [Config (.oxlintrc.json)]
{
  "plugins": ["import"],
  "rules": {
    "import/no-empty-named-blocks": "error"
  }
}
```

```bash [CLI]
oxlint --deny import/no-empty-named-blocks --import-plugin
```
