Unsupported emojis fallback
Certain sets don’t support all emojis (i.e. Messenger & Facebook don’t support :shrug:
). By default the Emoji component will not render anything so that the emojis’ don’t take space in the picker when not available. When using the standalone Emoji component, you can however render anything you want by providing the fallback
props.
To have the component render :shrug:
you would need to:
<Emoji
set={'messenger'}
emoji={'shrug'}
size={24}
fallback={(emoji) => {
return `:${emoji.short_names[0]}:`
}}
/>
Using with dangerouslySetInnerHTML
The Emoji component being a functional component, you can call it as you would call any function instead of using JSX. Make sure you pass html: true
for it to return an HTML string.
<span dangerouslySetInnerHTML={{
__html: Emoji({
html: true
set: 'apple'
emoji: '+1'
size: 24
})
}}></span>
Using with contentEditable
Following the dangerouslySetInnerHTML
example above, make sure the wrapping span
sets contenteditable="false"
.
<div contentEditable={true}>
Looks good to me
<span contentEditable={false} dangerouslySetInnerHTML={{
__html: Emoji({
html: true
set: 'apple'
emoji: '+1'
size: 24
})
}}></span>
</div>
Custom emojis
You can provide custom emojis which will show up in their own category.
import { Picker } from 'emoji-mart'
const customEmojis = [
{
name: 'Octocat',
short_names: ['octocat'],
text: '',
emoticons: [],
keywords: ['github'],
imageUrl: 'https://assets-cdn.github.com/images/icons/emoji/octocat.png?v7'
},
]
<Picker custom={customEmojis} />
Headless search
The Picker
doesn’t have to be mounted for you to take advantage of the advanced search results.
import { emojiIndex } from 'emoji-mart'
emojiIndex.search('christmas').map((o) => o.native)
// => [🎄, 🎅🏼, 🔔, 🎁, ⛄️, ❄️]
Storage
By default EmojiMart will store user chosen skin and frequently used emojis in localStorage
. That can however be overwritten should you want to store these in your own storage.
import { store } from 'emoji-mart'
store.setHandlers({
getter: (key) => {
// Get from your own storage (sync)
},
setter: (key, value) => {
// Persist in your own storage (can be async)
}
})
Possible keys are:
Key | Value | Description |
---|---|---|
skin | 1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6 |
|
frequently | { 'astonished': 11, '+1': 22 } |
An object where the key is the emoji name and the value is the usage count |
last | 'astonished' | (Optional) Used by frequently to be sure the latest clicked emoji will always appear in the “Recent” category |
Features
Powerful search
Short name, name and keywords
Not only does Emoji Mart return more results than most emoji picker, they’re more accurate and sorted by relevance.
Emoticons
The only emoji picker that returns emojis when searching for emoticons.
Results intersection
For better results, Emoji Mart split search into words and only returns results matching both terms.
Fully customizable
Anchors color, title and default emoji
Emojis sizes and length
Default skin color
As the developer, you have control over which skin color is used by default.
It can however be overwritten as per user preference.
Multiple sets supported
Apple / Google / Twitter / EmojiOne / Messenger / Facebook
Not opinionated
Emoji Mart doesn’t automatically insert anything into a text input, nor does it show or hide itself. It simply returns an emoji
object. It’s up to the developer to mount/unmount (it’s fast!) and position the picker. You can use the returned object as props for the EmojiMart.Emoji
component. You could also use emoji.colons
to insert text into a textarea or emoji.native
to use the emoji.
