Update to latest emoji.json (Unicode 8.0)

Open dacort opened this issue 8 years ago • 2 comments

This updates the emoji.json file to the latest from iamcal/emoji-data@401f2b4

As part of this, a couple methods in EmojiData.rb had to be updated to handle some quirks in the new emoji set:

  • Regex characters in the definitions
  • Fields having null values

One side effect of doing this update without #2 is that scanning for emoji with skin variants now returns two EmojiChar instances.

This looks pretty great. Do you have any thoughts as to the best way to handle integrating #2 with this?

Let me take a look at the other PR a little bit to see how it handles the update to emoji.json, which are significant. I feel like it should be fairly easy to re-base that PR on top of this change, but I'll take a look and verify.
