String Emoji Filter

17 September 2022

***************
Thank you for your interest in this component. I recommend that you switch to using the String Emoji and Character Class Filter which allows you to filter emojis and other characters using a list of "class/category" names

** EXPERIMENTAL ** You are welcome to use it (at your own risk). Please check back for improvements in filters

Filter out emoji characters from a string using a built in Regular Expression. This is a proof-of-concept demonstration component. A future version will possibly include the ability to update the regular expression used.

This uses a Java Snippet with a java regex replaceall call, and the following regular expression to identify emoji. This is currently experimental with different "filter types" being used.

Please contact @takbb on the forum if you have suggestions for improvements to the regex, or techniques used

FILTER TYPE 1
**************
filters using the following regex expression and appears to provide limited emoji filtering:
[\\p{C}\\p{So}\uFE00-\uFE0F\\x{E0100}-\\x{E01EF}]

FILTER TYPE 2
**************
uses the following regex expression, and at this time is the most extensive of the filters:
emojiRegex="(?:[\\u2700-\\u27bf]|" +
"(?:[\\ud83c\\udde6-\\ud83c\\uddff]){2}|" +
"[\\ud800\\udc00-\\uDBFF\\uDFFF]|[\\u2600-\\u26FF])[\\ufe0e\\ufe0f]?(?:[\\u0300-\\u036f\\ufe20-\\ufe23\\u20d0-\\u20f0]|[\\ud83c\\udffb-\\ud83c\\udfff])?" +
"(?:\\u200d(?:[^\\ud800-\\udfff]|" +
"(?:[\\ud83c\\udde6-\\ud83c\\uddff]){2}|" +
"[\\ud800\\udc00-\\uDBFF\\uDFFF]|[\\u2600-\\u26FF])[\\ufe0e\\ufe0f]?(?:[\\u0300-\\u036f\\ufe20-\\ufe23\\u20d0-\\u20f0]|[\\ud83c\\udffb-\\ud83c\\udfff])?)*|" +
"[\\u0023-\\u0039]\\ufe0f?\\u20e3|\\u3299|\\u3297|\\u303d|\\u3030|\\u24c2|[\\ud83c\\udd70-\\ud83c\\udd71]|[\\ud83c\\udd7e-\\ud83c\\udd7f]|\\ud83c\\udd8e|[\\ud83c\\udd91-\\ud83c\\udd9a]|[\\ud83c\\udde6-\\ud83c\\uddff]|[\\ud83c\\ude01-\\ud83c\\ude02]|\\ud83c\\ude1a|\\ud83c\\ude2f|[\\ud83c\\ude32-\\ud83c\\ude3a]|[\\ud83c\\ude50-\\ud83c\\ude51]|\\u203c|\\u2049|[\\u25aa-\\u25ab]|\\u25b6|\\u25c0|[\\u25fb-\\u25fe]|\\u00a9|\\u00ae|\\u2122|\\u2139|\\ud83c\\udc04|[\\u2600-\\u26FF]|\\u2b05|\\u2b06|\\u2b07|\\u2b1b|\\u2b1c|\\u2b50|\\u2b55|\\u231a|\\u231b|\\u2328|\\u23cf|[\\u23e9-\\u23f3]|[\\u23f8-\\u23fa]|\\ud83c\\udccf|\\u2934|\\u2935|[\\u2190-\\u21ff]";


FILTER TYPE 3
**************
Filter does not use Regular Expressions but attempts to filter out based on "surrogate pairs" of characters to identify that this is likely to be an Emoji. It filters many usual emoji but does
not find all of them

Options

Specify Column to Filter

This is the column on which to apply the emoji filter. A new String column with the specified name will be created. The source column remains unaffected

Enter filter processing type

Enter Description

Name of output column to append

Give the name of the output column. The default name will be "Emoji Free"

Filter Type (1,2,3)

Specify filter type to be used (see component description for details). Default is 2 which at this time appears to offer the best filtering, but may be overzealous!

Name of output column to append

Give the name of the output column. The default name will be "Emoji Free"
