There is no such feature on this module, but I think you can use emoji as its UTF8 code. Just copy and paste the emoji. I also think you can use the UTF8 code like:

console.log("\u{1F604}");

I solved using:

$ npm install node-emoji

var emoji = require('node-emoji').emoji;
bot.sendMessage(chatId, 'HI! ' + emoji.heart);

@jacopocappelli1989 This library is mostly focused on interacting with the Bot API i.e. providing low-level access to the API. This seems like a high-level feature that is better suited in a high-level library, or in your application code as @lenny76 suggests above.

Side note: you may be interested with tgfancy, as soon as I add emoji support (issue GochoMugo/tgfancy#3).
