Can't search for emojis in GiphyGridController #207

Closed roimulia2 closed 1 year ago

roimulia2 commented 1 year ago

Hey there!

I'm working on the implementation of GiphyGridController. I noticed that there is no option to search/filter emojis (which breaks the UX as the rest has this option.

Any specific reason why can't I search for it?

hey @roimulia2 thanks for opening this issue! we should add additional documentation to reflect that the .emoji content type is not searchable and include some guidance for how to handle that inability in integrations using the GiphyGridController.

in the meantime, feel free to check out the GiphyViewController experience to see how we opted to address the "discovery"-only aspect of emoji. The gist of it is that tapping into the search bar automatically triggers the selection of a searchable content type, like stickers.

Thank you @cgmaier! Got it.
