I believe the two main issues here are The library we use for Markdown processing has no type of emoji translation support: https://github.com/russross/blackfriday That alone is probably a blocker on this (unless somebody provided that feature upstream). We also use a Javascript library for this in the Web interface (https://github.com/joypixels/emojify.js) to render An alternative to do this in the Markdown API would be to use a different Go Library for this type of emoji processing, and parse the text ourselves like we do for other things (issue links, sha, email address, etc...). I'm not aware of any libraries that will take a text like |

Imho, if unicode emoji characters work, it's fine. Things like |

I don't think it does out of the box - however, it should be quite easy to make it do it. There's a potential time cost to doing the rendering I guess would have to look up the strings in some sort of map. Do you know does the :wibble: syntax conflict any other markdown? I don't think it does. |

BTW, I've been meaning to propose a new column (or table) for issues and comments containing the pre-rendered content plus references (mentions) and such. It should hold the rendered version of the content as long as it's shorter than a certain limit (the majority of comments will fall way below that limit). Anything bigger than that limit will be processed online, which is slower, but we're doing that already anyway. Thus we can worry less about the amount of processing in the output. I'm not sure it's justified, but I thought I would mention it. |

This PR replaces all use of emojify.js and adds unicode emoji support to various areas of gitea. This works in a few ways: First it adds emoji parsing support into gitea itself. This allows us to * Render emojis from valid alias (:smile:) * Detect unicode emojis and let us put them in their own class with proper aria-labels and styling * Easily allow for custom "emoji" * Support all emoji rendering and features without javascript * Uses plain unicode and lets the system render in appropriate emoji font * Doesn't leave us relying on external sources for updates/fixes/features That same list of emoji is also used to create a json file which replaces the part of emojify.js that populates the emoji search tribute. This file is about 35KB with GZIP turned on and I've set it to load after the page renders to not hinder page load time (and this removes loading emojify.js also) For custom "emoji" it uses a pretty simple scheme of just looking for /emojis/img/name.png where name is something a user has put in the "allowed reactions" setting we already have. The gitea reaction that was previously hard coded into a forked copy of emojify.js is included and works as a custom reaction under this method. The emoji data sourced here is from https://github.com/github/gemoji which is the gem library Github uses for their emoji rendering (and a data source for other sites). So we should be able to easily render any emoji and :alias: that Github can, removing any errors from migrated content. They also update it as well, so we can sync when there are new unicode emoji lists released. I've included a slimmed down and slightly modified forked copy of https://github.com/knq/emoji to make up our own emoji module. The code is pretty straight forward and again allows us to have a lot of flexibility in what happens. I had seen a few comments about performance in some of the other threads if we render this ourselves, but there doesn't seem to be any issue here. In a test it can parse, convert, and render 1,000 emojis inside of a large markdown table in about 100ms on my laptop (which is many more emojis than will ever be in any normal issue). This also prevents any flickering and other weirdness from using javascript to render some things while using go for others. Not included here are image fall back URLS. I don't really think they are necessary for anything new being written in 2020. However, managing the emoji ourselves would allow us to add these as a feature later on if it seems necessary.
