Is there a way to translate unicode emojis to an appropriate ascii emoticon in Python? I know the emoji library which can be used to convert unicode emojis to something like :crying_face:. But what I would need is to convert it to :'(
Is there an elegant way to do this without having to translate every possible emoji manually? Another option would be to convert the ascii emojis also to their textual representation, i.e. :'( should become :crying_face:.
My intermediate goal is to find a way to transform ascii and unicode emojis to a common representation. My final goal would be to replace emoticons (no matter if unicode or ascii) by the emotion they represent (if they do not represent an emotion, remove them)

I found these repos that have a huge database of emoji's along with a text attribute(what you need):
https://github.com/alexmick/emoji-data-python
https://github.com/iamcal/emoji-data (This is the original. The python one seems to be a wrapper on this)
You can find out more by exploring the examples in the repos. From the
For the python version you can use the official unicode name/hex code to get the EmojiChar object:
In [31]: grin = emoji_data_python.find_by_name("GRINNING FACE")
In [32]: grin
Out[32]:
[EmojiChar("GRINNING FACE"),
EmojiChar("GRINNING FACE WITH SMILING EYES"),
EmojiChar("GRINNING FACE WITH STAR EYES"),
EmojiChar("GRINNING FACE WITH ONE LARGE AND ONE SMALL EYE")]
In [33]: grin[0].text
Out[33]: ':D'
