⭐⭐⭐ Emoji Parser for SilverStripe ⭐⭐⭐
=====================================

[](#starstarstar-emoji-parser-for-silverstripe-starstarstar)

Render Emojis in your template, so that a `:smile:` becomes a real 😄

Usage
=====

[](#usage)

Copy or clone the project to your SilverStripe instance folder or using composer:

```
  composer require pstaender/silverstripe-emoji-parser dev-master
```

Wheny you're done flush SilverStripe cache with `?flush=1`.

In your templates you can now parse Emojis with:

```
  $Title
  $Content.Parse(Emoji)
```

Of course also in combination with other parsers:

```
  $Title
  $Content.Parse(BBCodeParser).Parse(Emoji)
```

All rendered icon-image-tags contain the class `emoji` so that you can easily define a style, for instance:

```
   img.emoji {
     height: 1em;
     margin: 0 1em 0 1em;
   }
```

JSON for clientside JavaScript usage
====================================

[](#json-for-clientside-javascript-usage)

You can access all emojis including the url to graphics by requesting `Emojis_Controller`:

```
  http://yourserver/Emojis_Controller/

```

and use the responded JSON:

```
{

    "100": "silverstripe-emoji-parser/graphics/emojis/100.png",
    "-1": "silverstripe-emoji-parser/graphics/emojis/-1.png",
    "+1": "silverstripe-emoji-parser/graphics/emojis/+1.png",
    …
}
```

Optional configuration
======================

[](#optional-configuration)

You can optionally configure these values in your `config.yml`:

```
  Emojis:
    basePath: pathToGraphics
    cssClass: classNameForCSS
```

TODO
====

[](#todo)

Implement alternate unicode characters.
