Disable "space indentation expected" errors

Question

Running ng lint gives me a lot of "space indentation expected" errors, reason being me using tabs instead of spaces. I'd be ok using 4 spaces instead of the tabs, but I can't work with 2-space-indentations.

I understand that the angular cli team currently doesn't have any plans to change the 2 space indentations, but is there any way of configuring the linter that it doesn't raise warnings about it?

Excluding all .ts files from linting is not a feasable option for me, putting "tslint:disable-next-line:indent" in all of the files like suggested here is also quite annoying.

Don't you have tslint.json in your project. You can try writing the rule there first. `"disable-next-line": "indent"` — Oluwafemi Sule, Mar 25 '18 at 20:27
"disable-next-line": "indent" didn't work, you led me on the right path though, really appreciate it! — user3255061, Mar 26 '18 at 01:49

"indent": [
  true,
  "tabs",
  4
],

in the tslint.json did the trick. See this reference in the docs.
