emoj

Find relevant emoji from text on the command-line

Uses a local emoji database.

Install

Ensure you have Node.js 18+ installed, and then run the following:

npm install --global emoj

Works best on macOS and Linux. Older Linux distributions don't support color emoji in the terminal, but newer ones (like Ubuntu 18.04 and Fedora 28) do. On Linux, I would recommend installing Emoji One for full emoji coverage. Doesn't really work on Windows.

Usage
