Cannot insert emoji text

[vishalbalaji]

Confirming the emoji inserts the emoji instead of the emoji name even though insert = false is set. Is there any way to get around that?

Could you provide youe cmp.setup?

Hiya, just wanted to chime in here as well seeing that this issue hasn't had much movement.

I have also tried setting the insert option to true and false but both have the same outcome i.e. the completion inserts the unicode emoji icon (😄) rather than the emoji text (:smile:)

Edit: Added relevant config snippet

cmp.setup.filetype('markdown', {
  sources = {
    { name = 'emoji', option = { insert = false } },
  }
})

+1 I have the same behavior, icon is always inserted instead of the text regardless o setting the option.insert to false

[UtkarshKunwar]

Is there any update on this issue? I tried to revert to earlier commits of the project as well in my config but I am still getting the same behaviour of getting the emoji 😄 instead of :smile:

EDIT: I've created a PR #10 which solves this issue for me. Feedback is appreciated.
