Emojicon

Whatsapp like implementation for emjoicons which appear as a popup over the soft keyboard

Example

<LinearLayout xmlns:android="http://schemas.android.com/apk/res/android"
              xmlns:emojicon="http://schemas.android.com/apk/res-auto"
              android:layout_width="match_parent"
              android:layout_height="match_parent"
              android:id="@+id/root_view"
              android:orientation="vertical">

    <github.ankushsachdeva.emojicon.EmojiconEditText
            android:id="@+id/editEmojicon"
            android:text="I \ue32d emojicon"
            emojicon:emojiconSize="28sp"
            android:layout_width="match_parent"
            android:layout_height="wrap_content"/>
</LinearLayout>

// Give the topmost view of your activity layout hierarchy. This will be used to measure soft keyboard height
PopupWindow popup = new EmojiconsPopup(rootView, getActivity());

//Will automatically set size according to the soft keyboard size        
popup.setSizeForSoftKeyboard();

//Set on emojicon click listener
popup.setOnEmojiconClickedListener(new OnEmojiconClickedListener() {
            
            @Override
            public void onEmojiconClicked(Emojicon emojicon) {
                emojiconEditText.append(emojicon.getEmoji());
            }
        });

//Set on backspace click listener
popup.setOnEmojiconBackspaceClickedListener(new OnEmojiconBackspaceClickedListener() {
    
    @Override
    public void onEmojiconBackspaceClicked(View v) {
        KeyEvent event = new KeyEvent(
                 0, 0, 0, KeyEvent.KEYCODE_DEL, 0, 0, 0, 0, KeyEvent.KEYCODE_ENDCALL);
                 emojiconEditText.dispatchKeyEvent(event);
    }
});

//Set listener for keyboard open/close
popup.setOnSoftKeyboardOpenCloseListener(new OnSoftKeyboardOpenCloseListener() {
            
            @Override
            public void onKeyboardOpen(int keyBoardHeight) {
                if(!popup.isShowing()){
                    popup.showAtBottom();
                }
            }
            
            @Override
            public void onKeyboardClose() {
                if(popup.isShowing())
                    popup.dismiss();
            }
        });

//To show popup manually you can call popup.showAtBottom();
//To show popup when the soft keyboard is not already visible, use popup.showAtBottomPending()

Note: You can change the size of emojis in XML layout through attribute emojiconSize.

Note : EmojiconTextView: a TextView which can render emojis.

Note : EmojiconEditText: a EditText which can render emojis.
