*** ** * ** ***

Main class to keep Android devices up to date with the newest emojis by adding `https://developer.android.com/reference/androidx/emoji2/text/EmojiSpan`s to a given `https://developer.android.com/reference/java/lang/CharSequence.html`.
By default, EmojiCompat is initialized by `https://developer.android.com/reference/androidx/emoji2/text/EmojiCompatInitializer`, which performs deferred font loading to avoid potential app startup delays. The default behavior is to load the font shortly after the first Activity resumes. EmojiCompatInitializer will configure EmojiCompat to use the system emoji font provider via `https://developer.android.com/reference/androidx/emoji2/text/DefaultEmojiCompatConfig` and always creates a new background thread for font loading. EmojiCompat will only allow one instance to be initialized and any calls to `https://developer.android.com/reference/androidx/emoji2/text/EmojiCompat#init(androidx.emoji2.text.EmojiCompat.Config)` after the first one will have no effect. As a result, configuration options may not be provided when using `https://developer.android.com/reference/androidx/emoji2/text/EmojiCompatInitializer`. To provide a custom configuration, disable `https://developer.android.com/reference/androidx/emoji2/text/EmojiCompatInitializer` in the manifest with:

```
    <provider
        android:name="androidx.startup.InitializationProvider"
        android:authorities="${applicationId}.androidx-startup"
        android:exported="false"
        tools:node="merge">
        <meta-data android:name="androidx.emoji2.text.EmojiCompatInitializer"
                  tools:node="remove" />
    </provider>
```
When not using EmojiCompatInitializer, EmojiCompat must to be initialized manually using `https://developer.android.com/reference/androidx/emoji2/text/EmojiCompat#init(androidx.emoji2.text.EmojiCompat.Config)`. It is recommended to make the initialization as early as possible in your app, such as from `https://developer.android.com/reference/android/app/Application.html#onCreate()`. `https://developer.android.com/reference/androidx/emoji2/text/EmojiCompat#init(androidx.emoji2.text.EmojiCompat.Config)` is fast and may be called from the main thread on the path to displaying the first activity. However, loading the emoji font takes significant resources on a background thread, so it is suggested to use `https://developer.android.com/reference/androidx/emoji2/text/EmojiCompat#LOAD_STRATEGY_MANUAL()` in all manual configurations to defer font loading until after the first screen displays. Font loading may be started by calling `https://developer.android.com/reference/androidx/emoji2/text/EmojiCompat#load()`}. See the implementation `https://developer.android.com/reference/androidx/emoji2/text/EmojiCompatInitializer` for ideas when building a manual configuration. After initialization the `https://developer.android.com/reference/androidx/emoji2/text/EmojiCompat#get()` function can be used to get the configured instance and the `https://developer.android.com/reference/androidx/emoji2/text/EmojiCompat#process(java.lang.CharSequence)` function can be used to update a CharSequence with emoji EmojiSpans.

```
CharSequence processedSequence = EmojiCompat.get().process("some string")
```
`` During loading information about emojis is not available. Before the EmojiCompat instance has finished loading, calls to functions such as `https://developer.android.com/reference/androidx/emoji2/text/EmojiCompat#process(java.lang.CharSequence)` will throw an exception. It is safe to call process when `https://developer.android.com/reference/androidx/emoji2/text/EmojiCompat#getLoadState()` returns `https://developer.android.com/reference/androidx/emoji2/text/EmojiCompat#LOAD_STATE_SUCCEEDED()`. To register a callback when loading completes use `https://developer.android.com/reference/androidx/emoji2/text/EmojiCompat.InitCallback`. ``

## Constants

### EDITOR_INFO_METAVERSION_KEY

Added in [1.0.0](https://developer.android.com/jetpack/androidx/releases/emoji2#1.0.0)

```
public static final String EDITOR_INFO_METAVERSION_KEY = "android.support.text.emoji.emojiCompat_metadataVersion"
```

Key in `https://developer.android.com/reference/android/view/inputmethod/EditorInfo.html#extras` that represents the emoji metadata version used by the widget. The existence of the value means that the widget is using EmojiCompat.
If exists, the value for the key is an `int` and can be used to query EmojiCompat to see whether the widget has the ability to display a certain emoji using `https://developer.android.com/reference/androidx/emoji2/text/EmojiCompat#hasEmojiGlyph(java.lang.CharSequence,int)`.

### EDITOR_INFO_REPLACE_ALL_KEY

Added in [1.0.0](https://developer.android.com/jetpack/androidx/releases/emoji2#1.0.0)

```
public static final String EDITOR_INFO_REPLACE_ALL_KEY = "android.support.text.emoji.emojiCompat_replaceAll"
```

Key in `https://developer.android.com/reference/android/view/inputmethod/EditorInfo.html#extras` that represents `https://developer.android.com/reference/androidx/emoji2/text/EmojiCompat.Config#setReplaceAll(boolean)` configuration parameter. The key is added only if EmojiCompat is used by the widget. If exists, the value is a boolean.

### EMOJI_FALLBACK

Added in [1.1.0](https://developer.android.com/jetpack/androidx/releases/emoji2#1.1.0)

```
public static final int EMOJI_FALLBACK = 2
```

Result of `https://developer.android.com/reference/androidx/emoji2/text/EmojiCompat#getEmojiMatch(java.lang.CharSequence,int)` that means the full codepoint sequence is not known to emojicompat, but at least one subsequence is an emoji that is known at this metadata level. Keyboards may decide that this emoji is not supported by the application when this result is returned, with no further processing. This return value implies: - EmojiCompat will decompose this ZWJ sequence into multiple glyphs when replaceAll=true - EmojiCompat MAY defer to platform when replaceAll=false - System emoji font may or may not support this emoji - This application MAY render this emoji This return value is only ever returned for ZWJ sequences. To understand this result consider when it may be returned for the multi-skin-tone handshake introduced in emoji 14.

```
    U+1FAF1 // unknown @ requested metadata level
    U+1F3FB // metadata level 1
    U+200D  // not displayed (ZWJ)
    U+1FAF2 // unknown @ requested metadata level
    U+1F3FD // metadata level 1
```
In this codepoint sequence, U+1F3FB and U+1F3FD are known from metadata level 1. When an application is using a metadata level that doesn't understand this ZWJ and provides `https://developer.android.com/reference/androidx/emoji2/text/EmojiCompat#REPLACE_STRATEGY_ALL()` true, the color emoji are matched and replaced with `https://developer.android.com/reference/androidx/emoji2/text/EmojiSpan`. The system emoji font, even if it supports this ZWJ sequence, is never queried and the added EmojiSpans force fallback rendering for the ZWJ sequence. The glyph will only display correctly for this application if ALL of the following requirements are met: - `https://developer.android.com/reference/androidx/emoji2/text/EmojiCompat#REPLACE_STRATEGY_ALL()` is false - `https://developer.android.com/reference/androidx/core/graphics/PaintCompat#hasGlyph(android.graphics.Paint,java.lang.String)` returns true for each emoji subsequence known at this metadata level - `https://developer.android.com/reference/androidx/core/graphics/PaintCompat#hasGlyph(android.graphics.Paint,java.lang.String)` returns true for the full sequence Given this return value for the multi-skin-tone handshake above, if `https://developer.android.com/reference/androidx/emoji2/text/EmojiCompat#REPLACE_STRATEGY_ALL()` is false then the emoji will display if the entire emoji sequence is matched by `https://developer.android.com/reference/androidx/core/graphics/PaintCompat#hasGlyph(android.graphics.Paint,java.lang.String)` because U+1F3FB and U+1F3FD are both in the system emoji font. Keyboards that wish to determine if the glyph will display correctly by the application in response to this return value should consider building an internal lookup for new ZWJ sequences instead of repeatedly calling `https://developer.android.com/reference/androidx/core/graphics/PaintCompat#hasGlyph(android.graphics.Paint,java.lang.String)` for each emoji subsequence.

### EMOJI_SUPPORTED

Added in [1.1.0](https://developer.android.com/jetpack/androidx/releases/emoji2#1.1.0)

```
public static final int EMOJI_SUPPORTED = 1
```

Result of `https://developer.android.com/reference/androidx/emoji2/text/EmojiCompat#getEmojiMatch(java.lang.CharSequence,int)` that means this codepoint can be drawn by an `https://developer.android.com/reference/androidx/emoji2/text/EmojiSpan` at this metadata level. No further checks are required by keyboards for this result. The emoji is always supported by this application. This return value implies: - EmojiCompat can draw this emoji - System emoji font may or may not support this emoji - This application WILL render this emoji This result implies that EmojiCompat can successfully display this emoji. The system emoji font is not checked by this method, and this result may be returned even if the platform also supports the emoji sequence. If the application passes `https://developer.android.com/reference/androidx/emoji2/text/EmojiCompat#REPLACE_STRATEGY_ALL()` of true, then an `https://developer.android.com/reference/androidx/emoji2/text/EmojiSpan` will always be generated for this emoji. If the application passes `https://developer.android.com/reference/androidx/emoji2/text/EmojiCompat#REPLACE_STRATEGY_ALL()` of false, then an `https://developer.android.com/reference/androidx/emoji2/text/EmojiSpan` will only be generated if `https://developer.android.com/reference/androidx/core/graphics/PaintCompat#hasGlyph(android.graphics.Paint,java.lang.String)` returns false for this emoji.

### EMOJI_UNSUPPORTED

Added in [1.1.0](https://developer.android.com/jetpack/androidx/releases/emoji2#1.1.0)

```
public static final int EMOJI_UNSUPPORTED = 0
```

Result of `https://developer.android.com/reference/androidx/emoji2/text/EmojiCompat#getEmojiMatch(java.lang.CharSequence,int)` that means no part of this codepoint sequence will ever generate an `https://developer.android.com/reference/androidx/emoji2/text/EmojiSpan` at the requested metadata level. This return value implies: - EmojiCompat will always defer to system emoji font - System emoji font may or may not support this emoji - This application MAY render this emoji This can be used by keyboards to learn that EmojiCompat does not support this codepoint sequence at this metadata version. The system emoji font is not checked by this method, and this result will be returned even if the system emoji font supports the emoji. This may happen if the application is using an older version of the emoji compat font than the system emoji font. Keyboards may optionally determine that the system emoji font will support the emoji, for example by building a internal lookup table or calling `https://developer.android.com/reference/androidx/core/graphics/PaintCompat#hasGlyph(android.graphics.Paint,java.lang.String)` to query the system emoji font. Keyboards may use a lookup table to optimize this check, however they should be aware that OEMs may add or remove emoji from the system emoji font. Keyboards may finally decide: - If the system emoji font DOES NOT support the emoji, then the emoji IS NOT supported by this application. - If the system emoji font DOES support the emoji, then the emoji IS supported by this application. - If system emoji font is support is UNKNOWN, then assume the emoji IS NOT supported by this application.

### LOAD_STATE_DEFAULT

Added in [1.0.0](https://developer.android.com/jetpack/androidx/releases/emoji2#1.0.0)

```
public static final int LOAD_STATE_DEFAULT = 3
```

EmojiCompat instance is constructed, however the initialization did not start yet.

### LOAD_STATE_FAILED

Added in [1.0.0](https://developer.android.com/jetpack/androidx/releases/emoji2#1.0.0)

```
public static final int LOAD_STATE_FAILED = 2
```

An unrecoverable error occurred during initialization of EmojiCompat. Calls to functions such as `https://developer.android.com/reference/androidx/emoji2/text/EmojiCompat#process(java.lang.CharSequence)` will fail.

|---|---|
| `https://developer.android.com/reference/androidx/emoji2/text/EmojiCompat#getLoadState()` |   |

### LOAD_STATE_LOADING

Added in [1.0.0](https://developer.android.com/jetpack/androidx/releases/emoji2#1.0.0)

```
public static final int LOAD_STATE_LOADING = 0

Added in [1.0.0](https://developer.android.com/jetpack/androidx/releases/emoji2#1.0.0)

```
public static @NonNull EmojiCompat init(@NonNull EmojiCompat.Config config)
```

Initialize the singleton instance with a configuration. When used on devices running API 18 or below, the singleton instance is immediately moved into `https://developer.android.com/reference/androidx/emoji2/text/EmojiCompat#LOAD_STATE_SUCCEEDED()` state without loading any metadata. When called for the first time, the library will create the singleton instance and any call after that will not create a new instance and return immediately.

| See also |
|---|---|
| `https://developer.android.com/reference/androidx/emoji2/text/EmojiCompat.Config` |   |

### init

Added in [1.0.0](https://developer.android.com/jetpack/androidx/releases/emoji2#1.0.0)

```
public static @Nullable EmojiCompat init(@NonNull Context context)
```

Initialize the singleton instance with the default system-provided configuration.

This is the recommended configuration for most applications. For more details see `https://developer.android.com/reference/androidx/emoji2/text/DefaultEmojiCompatConfig`.

This call will use `https://developer.android.com/reference/androidx/emoji2/text/DefaultEmojiCompatConfig` to lookup the default emoji font provider installed on the system and use that, if present. If there is no default font provider onthe system, this call will have no effect.

Note: EmojiCompat may only be initialized once, and will return the same instance afterwords.

| Returns |
|---|---|
| `@https://jspecify.dev/docs/api/org/jspecify/annotations/Nullable.html https://developer.android.com/reference/androidx/emoji2/text/EmojiCompat` | Default EmojiCompat for this device, or null if there is no provider on the system. |

### isConfigured

```
public static boolean isConfigured()
```

Return true if EmojiCompat has been configured by a successful call to `https://developer.android.com/reference/androidx/emoji2/text/EmojiCompat#init(android.content.Context)`. You can use this to check if `https://developer.android.com/reference/androidx/emoji2/text/EmojiCompat#get()` will return a valid EmojiCompat instance. This function does not check the `https://developer.android.com/reference/androidx/emoji2/text/EmojiCompat#getLoadState()` and will return true even if the font is still loading, or has failed to load.

| Returns |
|---|---|
| `boolean` | true if EmojiCompat has been successfully initialized. |

When used on devices running API 18 or below, `https://developer.android.com/reference/androidx/emoji2/text/EmojiCompat.InitCallback#onInitialized()` is called without loading any metadata. In such cases `https://developer.android.com/reference/androidx/emoji2/text/EmojiCompat.InitCallback#onFailed(java.lang.Throwable)` is never called.

| Parameters |
|---|---|
| `@https://jspecify.dev/docs/api/org/jspecify/annotations/NonNull.html https://developer.android.com/reference/java/util/concurrent/Executor.html executor` | executor to dispatch callback on |
| `@https://jspecify.dev/docs/api/org/jspecify/annotations/NonNull.html https://developer.android.com/reference/androidx/emoji2/text/EmojiCompat.InitCallback initCallback` | the initialization callback to register, cannot be `null` |

### unregisterInitCallback

Added in [1.0.0](https://developer.android.com/jetpack/androidx/releases/emoji2#1.0.0)

```
public void unregisterInitCallback(@NonNull EmojiCompat.InitCallback initCallback)
```

Unregisters a callback that was added before.

| Parameters |
|---|---|
| `@https://jspecify.dev/docs/api/org/jspecify/annotations/NonNull.html https://developer.android.com/reference/androidx/emoji2/text/EmojiCompat.InitCallback initCallback` | the callback to be removed, cannot be `null` |

### updateEditorInfo

Added in [1.0.0](https://developer.android.com/jetpack/androidx/releases/emoji2#1.0.0)

```
public void updateEditorInfo(@NonNull EditorInfo outAttrs)
```

Updates the EditorInfo attributes in order to communicate information to Keyboards. When used on devices running API 18 or below, does not update EditorInfo attributes. This is called from EditText integrations that use EmojiEditTextHelper. Custom widgets that allow IME not subclassing EditText should call this method when creating an input connection. When EmojiCompat is not in `https://developer.android.com/reference/androidx/emoji2/text/EmojiCompat#LOAD_STATE_SUCCEEDED()`, this method has no effect. Calling this method on API levels below API 19 will have no effect, as EmojiCompat may never be configured. However, it is always safe to call, even on older API levels.

| Parameters |
|---|---|
| `@https://jspecify.dev/docs/api/org/jspecify/annotations/NonNull.html https://developer.android.com/reference/android/view/inputmethod/EditorInfo.html outAttrs` | EditorInfo instance passed to `https://developer.android.com/reference/android/widget/TextView.html#onCreateInputConnection(android.view.inputmethod.EditorInfo)` |
