Usage

Emoji lookup

turtle.Emojis is a map which contains all emojis available in turtle. You can use it to look up emoji by their name.

package main

import (
    "fmt"
    "os"

    "github.com/hackebrot/turtle"
)

func main() {
    name := "turtle"
    emoji, ok := turtle.Emojis[name]

    if !ok {
        fmt.Fprintf(os.Stderr, "no emoji found for name: %v\n", name)
        os.Exit(1)
    }

    fmt.Printf("Name: %q\n", emoji.Name)
    fmt.Printf("Char: %s\n", emoji.Char)
    fmt.Printf("Category: %q\n", emoji.Category)
    fmt.Printf("Keywords: %q\n", emoji.Keywords)
}

Name: "turtle"
Char: 🐢
Category: "animals_and_nature"
Keywords: ["animal" "slow" "nature" "tortoise"]

Use Search() to find all emojis with a name that contains the search string.

package main

import (
    "fmt"
    "os"

    "github.com/hackebrot/turtle"
)

func main() {
    s := "computer"
    emojis := turtle.Search(s)

    if emojis == nil {
        fmt.Fprintf(os.Stderr, "no emojis found for search: %v\n", s)
        os.Exit(1)
    }

    fmt.Printf("%s: %s\n", s, emojis)
}

computer: [💻 🖱 🖥 ]

Category

Use Category() to find all emojis of the specified category.

package main

import (
    "fmt"
    "os"

    "github.com/hackebrot/turtle"
)

func main() {
    c := "travel_and_places"
    emojis := turtle.Category(c)

    if emojis == nil {
        fmt.Fprintf(os.Stderr, "no emojis found for category: %v\n", c)
        os.Exit(1)
    }

    fmt.Printf("%s: %s\n", c, emojis)
}

travel_and_places: [🚡 ✈️ 🚑 ]

Keyword

Use Keyword() to find all emojis by a keyword.

package main

import (
    "fmt"
    "os"

    "github.com/hackebrot/turtle"
)

func main() {
    k := "happy"
    emojis := turtle.Keyword(k)

    if emojis == nil {
        fmt.Fprintf(os.Stderr, "no emoji found for keyword: %v\n", k)
        os.Exit(1)
    }

    fmt.Printf("%s: %s\n", k, emojis)
}

happy: [😊 😁 😀 😂 ]

Emojis

Emoji names, categories and keywords are based on the fantastic muan/emojilib keyword library 📖

At this point, the turtle project supports the emojis that are also available on GitHub. See the GitHub REST API documentation for more information.
