Example code on FAQ is wrong / -FE0F ignored in URL

[Joshix-1]

Python-Code from https://openmoji.org/faq/

emoji_code = "-".join(f"{ord(c):x}" for c in emoji).upper()
url = f"https://raw.githubusercontent.com/hfg-gmuend/openmoji/master/color/72x72/{emoji_code}.png"

generates for https://emojipedia.org/emoji/%E2%80%BC/ (‼️) 203C-FE0F. That is correct. (see the emojipedia link)

But https://raw.githubusercontent.com/hfg-gmuend/openmoji/master/color/72x72/203C-FE0F.png is not found. The image instead is on https://raw.githubusercontent.com/hfg-gmuend/openmoji/master/color/72x72/203C.png

The -FE0F is missing from the URL. https://emojipedia.org/variation-selector-16/ seems to state that it is mandatory for the Emoji representation.

[b-g]

@Joshix-1 Many thanks for reporting! @kolibril13 could you have a look and fix the example?

[Joshix-1]

The same is the case for ⁉️ https://raw.githubusercontent.com/hfg-gmuend/openmoji/master/color/72x72/2049-FE0F.png doesn't work, but https://raw.githubusercontent.com/hfg-gmuend/openmoji/master/color/72x72/2049.png works.

I would say the issue is with the names of these files and not with the example code.

[Joshix-1]

I used the following python script to check for more emojis with the same issue: The python script needs the following library: https://pypi.org/project/emoji/ I ran it in a folder where I downloaded all the svgs from the 14.0 release

#!/user/bin/env python3

from emoji import EMOJI_DATA
from pathlib import Path

for emoji in EMOJI_DATA:
    emoji_code = "-".join(f"{ord(c):x}" for c in emoji).upper()
    path = Path(f"{emoji_code}.svg")
    if not path.is_file():
        if emoji_code.endswith("-FE0F"):
            path2 = Path(f"{emoji_code.removesuffix('-FE0F')}.svg")
            if path2.is_file():
                print(f"{emoji}: ", path2, "exists instead of", path)
                continue
        # print(f"{emoji}: ", path, "doesn't exist")

I found more files with the same issue:

[kolibril13]

I just saw at stackoverflow: The unicode value U+FE0F is called a variation selector It defines if the emoji is defined as image, with colour and possible animation, or as text. Therefore, the "-FE0F" sequence can simply be removed. Here is the new code string:

emoji_code = "-".join(f"{ord(c):x}" for c in emoji).upper().replace("-FE0F", "")

[Joshix-1]

https://emojipedia.org/variation-selector-16/

An invisible codepoint which specifies that the preceding character should be displayed with emoji presentation. Only required if the preceding character defaults to text presentation.

If I interpret that correctly -FE0F is required. Without it it is just a character and not an emoji.

☯ (character) ☯️ (emoji, with FE0F)

On https://emojipedia.org/emoji/%E2%98%AF/ it says the emoji needs both chars

So I don't think that the "FE0F" can be removed

[Joshix-1]

Same representation after posted (GitHub embedding an image https://github.githubassets.com/images/icons/emoji/unicode/262f.png): Different representation while editing (Noto Color Emoji):

GitHub doesn't care about the FE0F, but I don't think that is correct.

[Joshix-1]

Github even removes the fe0f for longer emoji sequences: Works: https://github.githubassets.com/images/icons/emoji/unicode/1f64b-1f3fb-200d-2642.png 404: https://github.githubassets.com/images/icons/emoji/unicode/1f64b-1f3fb-200d-2642-fe0f.png

OpenMoji has it with -FE0F: https://raw.githubusercontent.com/hfg-gmuend/openmoji/master/color/72x72/1F64B-1F3FB-200D-2642-FE0F.png

The emoji on emojipedia: https://emojipedia.org/man-raising-hand-light-skin-tone/

(just chose a random longer emoji that ends with FE0F)

[kolibril13]

@Joshix-1 : you can have a look at https://github.com/hfg-gmuend/openmoji/pull/405. Note, that this FE0F problem also exists with emojis from twitter, like this: url = f"https://raw.githubusercontent.com/twitter/twemoji/master/assets/72x72/{emoji_code.lower()}.png"

If I interpret that correctly -FE0F is required. Without it it is just a character and not an emoji.

yep, it is required for local emoji usage, but it's not required for the two sequence string when downloading from https://raw.githubusercontent.com/hfg-gmuend/openmoji/master/color/72x72/{emoji_code}.png

[Joshix-1]

If I look at https://github.com/hfg-gmuend/openmoji/releases/download/14.0.0/openmoji-font.zip In the demo.html ☮ and ☮️ are displayed the same way if I type them in the textarea. (first without FE0F).

That seems like another bug.
