Retrieve an emoji character using its name (alias).
const emoji = require('node-emoji');
console.log(emoji.get('coffee')); // outputs the coffee emoji
Find emoji in a string
Search for and return information about an emoji within a string.
const emoji = require('node-emoji');
console.log(emoji.find('I :heart: node-emoji!')); // finds and returns the heart emoji object
Replace emoji names with characters in a string
Convert emoji aliases in a string to their corresponding emoji characters.
const emoji = require('node-emoji');
console.log(emoji.emojify('I :heart: node-emoji!')); // replaces the :heart: alias with the actual heart emoji character
Replace characters with emoji names in a string
Convert emoji characters in a string to their corresponding emoji aliases.
const emoji = require('node-emoji');
console.log(emoji.unemojify('I ❤️ node-emoji!')); // replaces the heart emoji character with its alias :heart:
Random emoji
Get a random emoji object, which includes the emoji character and its alias.
const emoji = require('node-emoji');
console.log(emoji.random()); // returns a random emoji object
Emojione is a package that provides emoji conversion and supports a wide range of emoji characters. It is similar to node-emoji but also includes additional features such as emoji shortcodes, ASCII conversions, and sprite generation.
Emoji-js is a package that allows for conversion between Unicode characters and emoji images. It differs from node-emoji in that it can convert emoji characters into images, which can be useful for web applications that need to support a wide range of devices and platforms.
Twemoji is a Twitter open-source project that provides emoji support across different platforms. It offers emoji parsing and image conversion, similar to emoji-js, and focuses on consistent emoji rendering across all platforms.
