emojiis

Emojiis is a Go module that exposes a programmatic API to search and retrieve emoji icons using descriptive terms.

Version 2.0.0 released

Version 2.0 uses a JSON file (from https://github.com/milesj/emojibase) for its dataset, containing all commonly used emojis.

The API has been updated (if you use v1.xx, some functions may break after you update).

Features:

• Ability to search the full set of common emojis
• Support for inclusion and exclusion search terms
• Ability to search by emoji tags

See our API documentation

Installation

To get started with the module, use the go get command to pull down the packages:

go get github.com/celsopires1999/emojiis/v2@2.0.0

Usage

Here is a simple example of how to use the API:

emojis := search.ByDescription(search.Params{
    Include: []string{"face"},
    Exclude: []string{"smile", "laugh", "grin", "upside-down"}
})

Returns:

[]string{"🐵", "🐶", "🐱", "🐯", "🦊"}

Or, search by tags only:

emojis := search.ByTags("fruits")

Returns:

[]string{"🍇", "🍈", "🍉", "🍊", "🍋"}
