The Ultimate Route for Generating Emoji Images

hero

Note

emoji-route allows users to request images of emojis in multiple formats including PNG, SVG, and GIF. This is perfect for applications that need dynamic emoji handling or custom emoji display in different formats.

🌟 Features

emoji-route offers several unique features for handling and generating emojis:

  • SVG Emoji Generation – Generates an SVG image containing the requested emoji.
  • PNG Emoji Generation – Creates a PNG image using the canvas module with custom fonts for emojis.
  • GIF Emoji Fetching – Fetches and serves emoji GIFs directly from a reliable source.
  • Random Format Response – Allows users to get a random emoji format (SVG, PNG, or GIF) with just one request.
  • Fallbacks for Missing Emojis – In case an emoji isn't found, the app uses a default emoji (πŸ’©) to ensure smooth operation.

πŸ”„ Routes

emoji-route has the following routes for different emoji formats:

1. SVG Route (/svg/:emoji)

Generates an SVG image of the requested emoji.

  • Example: /svg/❀️
  • Response: SVG containing the ❀️ emoji.

2. PNG Route (/png/:emoji)

Generates a PNG image of the requested emoji.

  • Example: /png/πŸ’»
  • Response: PNG image of the πŸ’» emoji.

3. GIF Route (/gif/:emoji)

Fetches the emoji GIF from a reliable source and returns it. Powered by google fonts.

  • Example: /gif/πŸ˜‚
  • Response: GIF of the πŸ˜‚ emoji.

4. Random Emoji Route (/:emoji)

Returns a random image format (SVG, PNG, or GIF) for the requested emoji.

  • Example: /😊
