A Ruby gem. For emoji. For everyone. ❤️
This gem exposes the Phantom Open Emoji library unicode/image assets and APIs for working with them.
Easily look up emoji's name, unicode character, or image assets and convert it into emoji representations.
First, add this line to your application's Gemfile:
gem 'emoji'And then execute:
$ bundle
Or install it yourself as:
$ gem install emoji
Finally, install the emoji image library assets:
$ rake emoji:install_assets
====================================================================
= emoji image assets install
= Target: /Users/user/src/rails-app/app/assets/images/emoji
= Source: /Users/user/src/emoji/assets/images
====================================================================

You can use this gem to replace unicode emoji characters with img tags linking to the appropriate emoji image.
> Emoji.replace_unicode_moji_with_images('I ❤ Emoji')
=> "I <img alt=\"❤\" class=\"emoji\" src=\"http://localhost:3000/assets/emoji/heart.png\"> Emoji"
> Emoji.image_url_for_unicode_moji('❤')
=> "http://localhost:3000/assets/emoji/heart.png"
> Emoji.image_url_for_name('heart')
=> "http://localhost:3000/assets/emoji/heart.png"> index = Emoji::Index.new
> index.find_by_name('heart')
=> {"moji"=>"❤", "name"=>"heart", "name-ja"=>"ハート", "category"=>"abstract", "unicode"=>"2764"}
> index.find_by_moji('❤')
=> {"moji"=>"❤", "name"=>"heart", "name-ja"=>"ハート", "category"=>"abstract", "unicode"=>"2764"}
> index.find_by_unicode('2764')
=> {"moji"=>"❤", "name"=>"heart", "name-ja"=>"ハート", "category"=>"abstract", "unicode"=>"2764"}Default configuration integrates with Rails, but you can change it with an initializer:
# config/initializers/emoji.rb
Emoji.asset_host = "emoji.cdn.com"
Emoji.asset_path = '/assets/emoji'
Emoji.use_plaintext_alt_tags = trueYou can also include the string helper module
require 'emoji/string_ext'and call methods directly on your string to return the same results:
> 'I ❤ Emoji'.with_emoji_images
=> "I <img alt=\"❤\" class=\"emoji\" src=\"http://localhost:3000/assets/emoji/heart.png\"> Emoji"
> 'heart'.image_url
> '❤'.image_url
=> "http://localhost:3000/assets/emoji.heart.png"
> 'heart'.emoji_data
> '❤'.emoji_data
=> {"moji"=>"❤", "name"=>"heart", "name-ja"=>"ハート", "category"=>"abstract", "unicode"=>"2764"}By default when used with Rails, this gem will inherit Rails configured Rails.asset_host. Otherwise, you will need to manually configure the Emoji.asset_host as a string URL or a lambda/proc.
# String URL
Emoji.asset_host = 'http://your.com'
# Custom Host Proc, takes asset path as a param
Emoji.asset_host = lambda {|path| path.size % 2 == 0 ? 'http://even.com' : 'http://odd.com'}This gem uses pure Ruby code for compatibility with different Ruby virtual machines. However, there can be significant performance gains to escaping incoming HTML strings using optimized, native code in the escape_utils gem.
The emoji gem will try to use escape_utils if it's available, but does not require it. Benchmarks show a 10x-100x improvement in HTML escaping performance, based on the size of the string being processed.
To enable native HTML escaping, add this line to your application's Gemfile:
gem 'escape_utils'This project was spawned from conversation at the BurlingtonRB conference between Steve/Winfield. Together, they built the the initial gem. Huge thanks to everyone else who's submitted code and work to the project.
