Emoji for Python. This project was inspired by kyokomi.

Example

The entire set of Emoji codes as defined by the Unicode consortium is supported in addition to a bunch of aliases. By default, only the official list is enabled but doing emoji.emojize(language='alias') enables both the full list and aliases.

>>> import emoji
>>> print(emoji.emojize('Python is :thumbs_up:'))
Python is 👍
>>> print(emoji.emojize('Python is :thumbsup:', language='alias'))
Python is 👍
>>> print(emoji.demojize('Python is 👍'))
Python is :thumbs_up:
>>> print(emoji.emojize("Python is fun :red_heart:"))
Python is fun 
>>> print(emoji.emojize("Python is fun :red_heart:", variant="emoji_type"))
Python is fun ❤️ #red heart, not black heart
>>> print(emoji.is_emoji("👍"))
True

By default, the language is English (language='en') but also supported languages are:

  • Spanish ('es')

  • Portuguese ('pt')

  • Italian ('it')

  • French ('fr')

  • German ('de')

  • Farsi/Persian ('fa')

  • Indonesian ('id')

  • Simplified Chinese ('zh')

  • Japanese ('ja')

  • Korean ('ko')

  • Russian ('ru')

  • Arabic ('ar')

  • Turkish ('tr')

>>> print(emoji.emojize('Python es :pulgar_hacia_arriba:', language='es'))
Python es 👍
>>> print(emoji.demojize('Python es 👍', language='es'))
Python es :pulgar_hacia_arriba:
>>> print(emoji.emojize("Python é :polegar_para_cima:", language='pt'))
Python é 👍
>>> print(emoji.demojize("Python é 👍", language='pt'))
Python é :polegar_para_cima:

$ pytest
$ coverage run -m pytest
$ coverage report

The utils/generate_emoji.py script is used to generate unicode_codes/emoji.json. Generally speaking it scrapes a table on the Unicode Consortium’s website with BeautifulSoup For more information take a look in the utils/README.md file.

Check the code style with:

$ python -m pip install ruff
$ ruff check emoji

Test the type checks with:

$ python -m pip install pyright mypy typeguard
$ pyright emoji
$ pyright tests
$ mypy emoji
$ pytest --typeguard-packages=emoji
