emoji-data - Easy to consume Emoji data and images

This project provides easy-to-parse data about emoji, along with a spritesheet-style images for use on the web.

You can see a catalog of the emoji data here: http://unicodey.com/emoji-data/table.htm

Installation

The git repo is pretty big (almost 4GB), but contains everything. If you want to use npm, you can:

npm install emoji-datasource

This will only install the 32px full-fidelity spritesheets. If you want different size sheets (16,20 or 64px), quantized sheets (128 or 256 color) or the individual images (at 64px) then you'll need to install additional npm modules:

npm install emoji-datasource-apple
npm install emoji-datasource-google
npm install emoji-datasource-twitter
npm install emoji-datasource-emojione
npm install emoji-datasource-facebook
npm install emoji-datasource-messenger

Using the data

The file you want is emoji.json. It contains an array of entries for emoji that look like this:

[
    {
        "name": "WHITE UP POINTING INDEX",
        "unified": "261D-FE0F",

The meaning of each field is as follows:

Fields	Description
name	The offical Unicode name, in SHOUTY UPPERCASE.
unified	The Unicode codepoint, as 4-5 hex digits. Where an emoji needs 2 or more codepoints, they are specified like 1F1EA-1F1F8. For emoji that need to specifiy a variation selector (-FE0F), that is included here.
non_qualified	For emoji that also have usage without a variation selector, that version is included here (otherwise is null).
docomo, au, softbank, google	The legacy Unicode codepoints used by various mobile vendors.
image	The name of the image file.
sheet_x, sheet_y	The position of the image in the spritesheets.
short_name	The commonly-agreed upon short name for the image, as supported in campfire, github etc via the :colon-syntax:
short_names	An array of all the known short names.
text	An ASCII version of the emoji (e.g. :)), or null where none exists.
texts	An array of ASCII emoji that should convert into this emoji. Each ASCII emoji will only appear against a single emoji entry.
has_img_*	A flag for whether the given image set has an image (named by the image prop) available.
added_id	Unicode version in which this codepoint/sequence was added.
skin_variations	For emoji with multiple skin tone variations, a list of alternative glyphs, keyed by the skin tone.
obsoletes, obsoleted_by	Emoji that are no longer used, in preference of gendered versions.
