# Emojicons [](https://travis-ci.org/jiri/rust-emojicons)
Emojicons is a simple emoji parser written in Rust focused on ease of use and speed. It uses hashed map for fast lookup and compiled regular expressions for parsing strings.
## Example usage
The library is extremely straightforward to use. For transforming strings, use the formatter:
```rust
format!("{}", EmojiFormatter("Hello, :smile:!"));
```
This will return "Hello! :smile:"
There is also a macro for direct access to emoji:
```rust
emoji!("cat");
```
Will return a string with the glyph for :cat:.
