pelimoji 1.1.1

Pelican plugin to add custom emoji to your site

Pelimoji

Pelimoji is a Pelican plugin that adds support for custom emoji to your site.

Installation

This plugin can be installed via:

python -m pip install pelimoji

As long as you have not explicitly added a PLUGINS setting to your Pelican settings file, then the newly-installed plugin should be automatically detected and enabled. Otherwise, you must add pelimoji to your existing PLUGINS list. For more information, please see the How to Use Plugins documentation.

Usage

Within your PATH content root create a directory called emoji. To that directory, add any square image files at least 16x16 ending in .png. These will be your emoji, addressable via the filename before the extension, such as :gentoo: if you had a file named gentoo.png in your PELIMOJI_PATH. This is case-sensitive if your filesystem is case-sensitive. 64x64 works best, but any size will do, including 512x512. Just remember, this will affect load speed for your pages.

When compiling your site, the following directory will be created and automatically added to your STATIC_PATHS: PATH/emoji_map/. You'll need to ensure that PATH/emoji_map/emoji.css is loaded as a stylesheet, whether using something like webassets or cssmin, or by adding directly.

You may optionally also specify a PELIMOJI_PREFIX to require if you might have multiple sets of colon-tags that'd overlap. Whereas I might normally use :thumbs-up:, I could then specify PELIMOJI_PREFIX = "emoji", and my tag would instead be :emoji-thumbs-up:.

By default this plugin operates on source content files with the following file extensions: ["md", "html", "rst"], corresponding to Markdown, HTML, and reStructuredText. If you, say, want this plugin to also process files ending in .txt, you should add the following to your settings file:

PELIMOJI_FILE_EXTENSIONS = ["md", "html", "rst", "txt"]
