🚨 The output is not escaped so be careful with what you pass into `@joypixels`.

More details about how `toImage($str)` works can be found at

### Example

[](#example)

You want to let users put emoji a comment. When you are saving a comment, you might want to run the content through `LaravelJoyPixels::toShort($str)` to convert `😄` and other emoji to `:smile:` etc.

```
Comment::create([
  'content' => LaravelJoyPixels::toShort(request('content'))
]);
```

So if someone leaves a comment like `This is an awesome comment 😄🔥` it will be saved as `This is an awesome comment :smile: :fire:`

In your view where you display your comments you can use

```
@joypixels($comment->content)
```

and that will convert `:smile:` and `😄` to the emojione equivalent.

Assets
------

[](#assets)

By default it will use the assets from JSDelivr.

Remember to run this before trying to publish any of the assets:

```
composer require joypixels/assets
```

If you want to serve the assets yourself you can publish them with the following commands. Remember to update `config/joypixels.php`

PNG files in sizes 32/64/128:

```
$ php artisan vendor:publish --tag=public --provider="hdvinnie\LaravelJoyPixels\LaravelJoyPixelsServiceProvider"
```

In `config/joypixels.php` specify the local path. Remember to specify which size you want in the path (32/64/128).

```
'imagePathPNG' => '/vendor/joypixels/png/64/',
```

### Sprites

[](#sprites)

If you want to use sprites:

```
$ php artisan vendor:publish --tag=sprites --provider="hdvinnie\LaravelJoyPixels\LaravelJoyPixelsServiceProvider"
```

In `config/joypixels.php` enable sprites:

```
'sprites' => true,
'spriteSize' => 32, // 32 or 64
```

Add the stylesheet to your HTML:

```

```
