This emoji is not deleted

[jesusvallez]

Hello everyone!

I am using your library but I have an issue:
test\u26A1**\uFE0F** (test⚡️)

This emoji is not deleted.
When I stip the string I get this: test**\uFE0F**

Could you help me?

Those codes are present in the regex string from the emoji-regex dependency (https://github.com/mathiasbynens/emoji-regex/blob/master/index.js), so I'm not sure why they aren't getting stripped out.

A remove all non-ascii characters regex works as a workaround for me:

return myString.replace(/[^\x00-\x7F]/g, "");

It might be a question of updating the dependencies to get the latest version of emoji-regex. I'll take a closer look this weekend.

I tried updating the dependencies, but it didn't change anything for me. Good luck and hope you can get it. Cheers,Jordan RejaudSoftware Engineer and ConsultantSan Francisco, CAM.S.

Ditto, 🥳, is not removed either.

I am not proud of this, but it works...

var emojiStrip = require('emoji-strip')
function strimEmojis(string) {
    return emojiStrip(string).replace(/([\uE000-\uF8FF]|\uD83C[\uDC00-\uDFFF]|\uD83D[\uDC00-\uDFFF]|[\u2011-\u26FF]|\uD83E[\uDD10-\uDDFF])/g, '');
 }
