regex for Emoji script unicode not working

[SimonVillage]

JSON Schema

const schema = {
  body: {
    type: "object",
    properties: {
      emoji: {
        type: "string",
        pattern: "^\p{Emoji}$",
      },
    },
  },
};

Sample data

{
    "emoji": "😜"
}

I assume it has something to do with the \p? I believe that I just can't figure out how to write it the right way.

This is not a bug, and not an issue with the library - please review the docs on regular expressions.

The regex does seem incorrect - I don't thing {Emoji} regex would match any emoji, and not sure what \p does here...

Did you check the example? https://regex101.com/r/ZEU1fo/1

It says \p{Emoji} matches any characters in the Emoji script

If that works, then maybe all you need is to escape back slash? Because currently you are escaping p, so \ is not part of the string.

it works with escaping
