emoji-fzf 0.3.0

Emoji searcher for use with fzf

emoji fzf

Small utility for manipulating emojis via fzf's --preview hook!

Depends on fzf being installed to the system (integrates via bash alias/ function rather than using fzf bindings or whatnot).

Use it

To use with fzf's preview browser, you'll need to install fzf, see instructions: https://github.com/junegunn/fzf#installation

pip install emoji-fzf

# if you aren't installing to a virtual env, you may need to add this to path
# (if it wasn't already) to access the tool
export PATH=$PATH:~/.local/bin

# add me to your ~/.bashrc or ~/.zshrc or whatnot
alias emoj="emoji-fzf preview | fzf --preview 'emoji-fzf get --name {1}' | cut -d \" \" -f 1 | emoji-fzf get"
# to copy to xclip system keyboard (on mac use pbcopy) after selecting
emoj | xclip -selection c

Alternative setup

If you prefer not to use fzf's preview feature and have the emojis appear before their aliases you can use the following alias instead:

alias emoj="emoji-fzf preview --prepend | fzf | awk '{ print \$1 }'"

Development/testing

This uses a Dockerfile to keep the test build environment relatively clean and locked. The full test infrastructure is:

• Docker container, based on buildpack Debian jessie image
• tox-conda, which enables us to install any python version available on conda channels (here just a few since the supported list is relatively small)
• tox to run the tests + build checks
• black formatting check
• check-wheel-contents and isort for more styling/idiomatic usage checks

To run the test suite in docker just as CI does:

# build the image and tag it as 'emoji-fzf'
docker build -t emoji-fzf --build-arg "UID=$(id -u)" -f Dockerfile

# from this repo root, mount the cwd into the container and run tox
docker run -v $(pwd):/mnt/workspace -t emoji-fzf bash -c "cd /mnt/workspace && tox"
