This repo contains a function to scrape a dictionary of Emojis including a brief textual description and their byte representation. It also contains the dictionary itself (21.02.2019). Upon running the function, data is scraped from https://emojipedia.org/. As long as the urls for the respective Emoji categories and the XML paths to the respective lists stay the same, the function should be able to scrape and parse the website also at later times, when new emojis have been added (untested as of now).
