## Emojize
High resolution, unicode (emoji) to html conversion utility

``` sh
npm install emojize --save
```

``` js
var convert = require('emojize').emojize
var html = convert('Haay 😜. Just getting ☕. But maybe 🍻 at 🕘🌜 is that 🆒')
```

### Browser usage with Ender

``` sh
ender add emojize
```

#### Note
Use of this library requires `` encoding if used in a browser.

``` html



```

``` js
var convert = require('emojize').emojize
document.getElementById('content').innerHTML = convert('Haay 😜')
```

### Sprite vs Image
`emojize` defaults to sprite based conversion which ultimately requires the developer to include the `sprite/emoji.css` and upload the `emoji.png` along side the file. You could otherwise include all images found in [`img/`](img/) and pass in flag to the second argument to `emojize`

``` js
var emo = require('emojize')
emo.base('images/emojis/')
emo.emojize('Haay 😜', true)

/**
* outputs:
* 'Haay '
*/
```

### Examples

``` sh
make build
make example
open http://localhost:3000/example.jade
```

### Sizing
Each emoji defaults to `64px` × `64px` which may not always be desired. Thus, consider the following practice. Example assumes LESS.

``` css
.quarter { zoom: 0.25 }
.half { zoom: 0.5 }
.three-quarter { zoom: 0.75 }
.full { zoom: 1 }

@media screen and (max-width: 768px) {
.emoji {
.quarter()
}
}

@media screen and (max-width: 992px) {
.emoji {
.half()
}
}
@media screen and (max-width: 1200px) {
.emoji {
.three-quarter()
}
}
@media screen and (max-width: 1600px) {
.emoji {
.full()
}
}

```
