simple emoji support for node.js projects
To install node-emoji
, you need node.js and npm. 🚀
Once you have that set-up, just run npm install --save node-emoji
in your project directory. 🚢
You're now ready to use emoji in your node projects! Awesome! 🤘
var emoji = require('node-emoji')
emoji.get('coffee') // returns the emoji code for coffee (displays emoji on terminals that support it)
emoji.which(emoji.get('coffee')) // returns the string "coffee"
emoji.get(':fast_forward:') // `.get` also supports github flavored markdown emoji (http://www.emoji-cheat-sheet.com/)
emoji.emojify('I :heart: :coffee:!') // replaces all :emoji: with the actual emoji, in this case: returns "I ❤️ ☕️!"
emoji.random() // returns a random emoji + key, e.g. `{ emoji: '❤️', key: 'heart' }`
Emoji come from js-emoji (Thanks a lot 👍). You can get a JSON file with all emoji here: https://github.com/omnidan/node-emoji/blob/master/lib/emoji.json
To update the list or add custom emoji, clone this repository and put them into lib/emojifile.js
.
Then run npm run-script emojiparse
in the project directory or node emojiparse
in the lib directory.
This should generate the new emoji.json file and output Done.
.
That's all, you now have more emoji you can use! 👏
