emoji is a minimalistic emoji library for Go. It lets you use emoji characters in strings.

Inspired by spatie/emoji

Install :floppy_disk:

bash
go get github.com/enescakir/emoji

Usage :surfer:

package main

import ( "fmt"

"github.com/enescakir/emoji" )

func main() { fmt.Printf("Hello %v\n", emoji.WavingHand) fmt.Printf("I am %v from %v\n", emoji.ManTechnologist, emoji.FlagForTurkey, ) fmt.Printf("Different skin tones.\n default: %v light: %v dark: %v\n", emoji.ThumbsUp, emoji.OkHand.Tone(emoji.Light), emoji.CallMeHand.Tone(emoji.Dark), ) fmt.Printf("Emojis with multiple skin tones.\n both medium: %v light and dark: %v\n", emoji.PeopleHoldingHands.Tone(emoji.Medium), emoji.PeopleHoldingHands.Tone(emoji.Light, emoji.Dark), ) fmt.Println(emoji.Parse("Emoji aliases are :sunglasses:")) emoji.Println("Use fmt wrappers :+1: with emoji support :tada:") }

/* OUTPUT

Hello πŸ‘‹ I am πŸ‘¨β€πŸ’» from πŸ‡ΉπŸ‡· Different skin tones. default: πŸ‘ light: πŸ‘ŒπŸ» dark: πŸ€™πŸΏ Emojis with multiple skin tones. both medium: πŸ§‘πŸ½β€πŸ€β€πŸ§‘πŸ½ light and dark: πŸ§‘πŸ»β€πŸ€β€πŸ§‘πŸΏ Emoji aliases are 😎 Use fmt wrappers πŸ‘ with emoji support πŸŽ‰ */

This package contains emojis constants based on Full Emoji List v13.0.

emoji.CallMeHand // πŸ€™ emoji.CallMeHand.Tone(emoji.Dark) // πŸ€™πŸΏ
Also, it has additional emoji aliases from github/gemoji.
emoji.Parse(":+1:") // πŸ‘ emoji.Parse(":100:") // πŸ’―

You can generate country flag emoji with ISO 3166 Alpha2 codes:

emoji.CountryFlag("tr") // πŸ‡ΉπŸ‡· emoji.CountryFlag("US") // πŸ‡ΊπŸ‡Έ emoji.Parse("country flag alias :flag-gb:") // country flag alias πŸ‡¬πŸ‡§

All constants are generated by internal/generator.

Testing :hammer:

bash
go test

Todo :pushpin:

  • Add examples to godoc

Contributing :man_technologist:

I am accepting PRs that add aliases to the package. You have to add it to customEmojis list at internal/generator/main.

If you think an emoji constant is not correct, open an issue. Please use this list to look up the correct unicode value and the name of the character.
