What is this?

This package is a unified (retext) plugin to classify emoji (❤️), gemoji (:heart:), and emoticons (<3) as a specific node, and to optionally transform them from one type to another.

When should I use this?

You can either use this plugin any time there are emoji, gemoji, or emoticons in prose that are (incorrectly) warned about by linting plugins, or you can use it to transform them.

Install

This package is ESM onlyesm. In Node.js (version 16+), install with npm:

npm install retext-emoji

In Deno with esm.shesmsh:

import retextEmoji from 'https://esm.sh/retext-emoji@9'

In browsers with esm.shesmsh:

<script type="module">
  import retextEmoji from 'https://esm.sh/retext-emoji@9?bundle'
</script>

Use

import retext from 'retext'
import emoji from 'retext-emoji'

const file = await retext()
  .use(emoji, {convert: 'encode'})
  .process('I’m going to bed. :zzz:')

console.log(String(file))

Yields:

I’m going to bed. 💤

Data

Syntax tree

This plugin applies several nlcst utilities to build the AST. See their readmes for the node types supported in the tree:

• nlcst-emoticon-modifiernlcst-emoticon-modifier

— emoticons

• nlcst-emoji-modifiernlcst-emoji-modifier

— emoji and gemoji

Types

This package is fully typed with TypeScript. It exports the additional type Optionsapi-options.
The Emoticon node is exposed from nlcst-emoticon-modifiernlcst-emoticon-modifier.

Compatibility

Projects maintained by the unified collective are compatible with maintained versions of Node.js.
When we cut a new major release, we drop support for unmaintained versions of Node. This means we try to keep the current release line, retext-emoji@^9, compatible with Node.js 16.
