Adding OpenMoji as a new emoji set

Feature
6

I would also really like to see this. It would be nice for Fedora to use an all-open source emoji set.

I’m not sure what you mean by the unicode emoji list — since it’s a standard, all of the code-points are the same. And you’ve got a mapping of the names discourse uses to those. So, as a first pass… something like this?

#!/bin/bash
TARGETDIR="./discourse/public/images/emoji/openmoji"

[[ ! -f openmoji-72x72-color.zip ]] && curl -L -O https://github.com/hfg-gmuend/openmoji/releases/latest/download/openmoji-72x72-color.zip
unzip -u -d openmoji-color openmoji-72x72-color.zip

mkdir -p $TARGETDIR

curl -s https://raw.githubusercontent.com/discourse/discourse/main/lib/emoji/db.json | 
    jq -r '.emojis[] | "\(.code) \(.name)"' |
    while read -r codepoint name; do 
        cp openmoji-color/${codepoint^^}.png ${TARGETDIR}/${name}.png 2>/dev/null || echo "Missing ${name}"
    done
