Sheet sizes

Sheets are served from unpkg, a global CDN that serves files published to npm.

Set Size (sheetSize: 16) Size (sheetSize: 20) Size (sheetSize: 32) Size (sheetSize: 64)
apple 334 KB 459 KB 1.08 MB 2.94 MB
emojione 315 KB 435 KB 1020 KB 2.33 MB
facebook 322 KB 439 KB 1020 KB 2.50 MB
google 301 KB 409 KB 907 KB 2.17 MB
messenger 325 KB 449 KB 1.05 MB 2.69 MB
twitter 288 KB 389 KB 839 KB 1.82 MB

Datasets

While all sets are available by default, you may want to include only a single set data to reduce the size of your bundle.

Set Size (on disk)
all 570 KB
apple 484 KB
emojione 485 KB
facebook 421 KB
google 483 KB
messenger 197 KB
twitter 484 KB

To use these data files (or any other custom data), use the NimblePicker component:

import data from 'emoji-mart/data/messenger.json'
import { NimblePicker } from 'emoji-mart'

<NimblePicker set='messenger' data={data} />

Examples of emoji object:

{
  id: 'smiley',
  name: 'Smiling Face with Open Mouth',
  colons: ':smiley:',
  text: ':)',
  emoticons: [
    '=)',
    '=-)'
  ],
  skin: null,
  native: '😃'
}

{
  id: 'santa',
  name: 'Father Christmas',
  colons: ':santa::skin-tone-3:',
  text: '',
  emoticons: [],
  skin: 3,
  native: '🎅🏼'
}

{
  id: 'octocat',
  name: 'Octocat',
  colons: ':octocat:',
  text: '',
  emoticons: [],
  custom: true,
  imageUrl: 'https://assets-cdn.github.com/images/icons/emoji/octocat.png?v7'
}

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, props) => {
    return emoji ? `:${emoji.short_names[0]}:` : props.emoji
  }}
/>

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. You can either use a single image as imageUrl or use a spritesheet as shown in the second object.

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'
  },
  {
    name: 'Test Flag',
    short_names: ['test'],
    text: '',
    emoticons: [],
    keywords: ['test', 'flag'],
    spriteUrl: 'https://unpkg.com/[email protected]/img/twitter/sheets-256/64.png',
    sheet_x: 1,
    sheet_y: 1,
    size: 64,
    sheetColumns: 52,
    sheetRows: 52,
  },
]

<Picker custom={customEmojis} />

Not Found

You can provide a custom Not Found object which will allow the appearance of the not found search results to change. In this case, we change the default 'sleuth_or_spy' emoji to Octocat when our search finds no results.

import { Picker } from 'emoji-mart'

const notFound = () => <img src='https://assets-cdn.github.com/images/icons/emoji/octocat.png?v7' />

<Picker notFound={notFound} />

Custom icons

You can provide custom icons which will override the default icons.

import { Picker } from 'emoji-mart'

const customIcons = {
  categories: {
    recent: () => <img src='https://assets-cdn.github.com/images/icons/emoji/octocat.png?v7' />,
    foods: () => <svg role="img" viewBox="0 0 24 24" xmlns="http://www.w3.org/2000/svg"><path d="M0 0l6.084 24H8L1.916 0zM21 5h-4l-1-4H4l3 12h3l1 4h13L21 5zM6.563 3h7.875l2 8H8.563l-2-8zm8.832 10l-2.856 1.904L12.063 13h3.332zM19 13l-1.5-6h1.938l2 8H16l3-2z"/></svg>,
    people: () => <svg xmlns="http://www.w3.org/2000/svg" width="16" height="16" viewBox="0 0 16 16"><path d="M3 2l10 6-10 6z"></path></svg>
  }
}

<Picker icons={customIcons} />

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)
// => [🎄, 🎅🏼, 🔔, 🎁, ⛄️, ❄️]

With custom data

import data from 'emoji-mart/datasets/messenger'
import { NimbleEmojiIndex } from 'emoji-mart'

let emojiIndex = new NimbleEmojiIndex(data)
emojiIndex.search('christmas')

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.

The only emoji picker that returns emojis when searching for emoticons.

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.
