How to send and receive Emoji to webservice [closed]

Question

I need to use emoji for chat in my android application.I'm using this library https://github.com/rockerhieu/emojicon to get emoji, its perfectly shows emoji but how can I send/receive to the server for my chat application. Thanks-

This is my code for getting Emoji with the help of library

   <com.rockerhieu.emojicon.EmojiconTextView
            android:id="@+id/txtEmojicon"
            android:text="I \ue32d emojicon"
            android:layout_width="match_parent"
            android:layout_height="wrap_content"/>

    <com.rockerhieu.emojicon.EmojiconEditText
            android:id="@+id/editEmojicon"
            android:text="I \ue32d emojicon"
            emojicon:emojiconSize="28sp"
            android:layout_width="match_parent"
            android:layout_height="wrap_content"/>

It shows emoji in EditText and TextView but issue is how can I get this emoji to send/receieve it to the server.I know I need to get Unicode but issue is how can I get Unicode from this Textview or EditText??

Emojis are just unicode. As you can see on that library: android:text="I \ue32d emojicon" where ue32dstands for that heart emoji.

So you can simple send the text to your server and on the other side display it normally and it should be rendered as an image.
