This package provides a full list of fully qualified emoji characters as constants using data from the Unicode emoji test data. That's it.
The files within this package are auto-generated using go generate, see codegen.
Usage:
import emojilist "github.com/zewebdev1337/emojilist/v16"
fmt.Println(emojilist.EMOJI_GRINNING_FACE) // Output: 😀Naming:
Emoji constants are named following the pattern EMOJI_<EMOJI_NAME>, where <EMOJI_NAME> is the emoji's descriptive name from the Unicode emoji test data, converted to uppercase and with spaces and special characters replaced by underscores. For example:
- "grinning face" becomes
EMOJI_GRINNING_FACE - "thumbs up light skin tone" becomes
EMOJI_THUMBS_UP_LIGHT_SKIN_TONE - "keycap *" becomes
EMOJI_KEYCAP_STAR
Manually updating (or downgrading) the Emoji List:
If this package is not updated or you need to follow constraints from an older emoji version (and manage to find the txt files for versions below v11), you can manually update the emoji list to a specific Unicode version. Simply update the version number at the top of the emojilist file to point to the desired emoji test data file and run go generate in the root of the project to regenerate the file and directory with the updated emoji data.
