Digested Gemoji data

This library provides gemoji data broken into multiple JSON files. The idea here is to save bandwidth and only consume the field you need.

We use the following terminology in the schema:

• Alias: The unique text representation of the emoji. example: cowboy_hat_face
• EmojiChar: The emoji character, example:"🙎","🙎‍♂️","🙎‍♀️","🙅","🙅‍♂️"
• EmojiIndex: The number representing the index of the emoji in the emoji.json array.

data/gemoji.json

The entire emoji file with unicode_version and ios_version removed.

data/alias_lookup.json

Schema: Array<[Alias, EmojiChar, EmojiIndex]>

Unlike every other file, this array's indices donot correspond to an emoji in emoji.json. To help with this lack of information, the third item of the nested array will always be the EmojiIndex.

data/category_lookup.json

Schema: Object<Category, Array<EmojiIndex>>

An object with each key as the category and the value being the array of all emoji indices that fall in that category.

data/emoji.json

Schema: Array<EmojiChar>

The emoji char. The index of item EmojiIndex is used in other files to do a reverse lookup.

data/description.json

Schema: Array<string>

Description of the emoji. Each item in this file corresponds 1:1 to the emoji in emoji.json.

data/category.json

Schema: Array<string>

The category of emoji. Each item in this file corresponds 1:1 to the emoji in emoji.json.

data/aliases.json

Schema: Array<Array<Alias>>

The alias of emoji. Each item in this file corresponds 1:1 to the emoji in emoji.json.

data/tags.json

Schema: Array<Array<string>> The tags of emoji. Each item in this file corresponds 1:1 to the emoji in emoji.json.

data/unicode_version.json

data/ios_version.json

data/skin_tones.json
