A Python package for emoji sentiment analysis.

Emoji Sentiment

A Python package for looking up sentiment scores from the Emoji Sentiment Ranking 1.0 dataset.

The package provides a score from -1 (negative) to 1 (positive), together with the emoji name, character, short names, and sample count. Scores come from the bundled research dataset; the package does not run a predictive model.

Installation

Requires Python 3.14 or newer.

pip install emoji-sentiment

Usage

from emoji_sentiment import EmojiSentiment

emoji_sentiment = EmojiSentiment()
smile_emoji = emoji_sentiment.get("smile")
print(smile_emoji)

get() is case-insensitive and returns None when the short name is unknown or not present in the dataset. Use emoji_sentiment.all to retrieve all 969 entries.
