#1. 😎 # Emoji is a cute little module to work with Emoji. # It has every named character in the unicode dataset. # Find-Emoji lets us search by keyword. Find-Emoji "sunglasses" # (that's why it's also called Search-Emoji). Search-Emoji "boat" # Get-Emoji can get emoji by name. Get-Emoji -Name "sailboat" #2. 😉 # Find-Emoji is more powerful than it looks. # By default, it uses a regular expression. # Let's find all emoji ending in cat or dog Find-Emoji "(?>Cat|Dog)$" # We can also narrow it down with -Word, which will only look for whole words Find-Emoji "(?>Lion|Tiger|Bear)" -Word # Don't like regex? Just use -like: Find-Emoji -Like "*left*arrow*" #3. 😍 # We can also get all of the character blocks: Get-Emoji -Block # Or see a specific block Get-Emoji -BlockName Emoticons # Don't forget the object pipeline, it's your friend: Get-Emoji -Block | Where-Object BlockName -like '*box*' | Get-Emoji #4. 🥰 # Emoji are playful. # Here are a few games we can play with Emoji. # Cards: Search-Emoji "Playing Card" # Chess: Search-Emoji "chess" | Where-Object Number -lt 10kb # Dominos: Search-Emoji "Domino" # Mahjong: Get-Emoji -BlockName 'Mahjong Tiles' # Emoji can make music: Get-Emoji -BlockName 'Musical Symbols' # It can even show you how the Ancient Greeks made music: Get-Emoji -BlockName 'Ancient Greek Musical Notation' # Or we could learn some alchemy: Get-Emoji -BlockName 'Alchemical Symbols' # Maybe try to learn Hieroglyphs?
