Categorize Emoji Tweets/text based on Emoji category — emoji

Users can use emoji_categorize to see the all the categories each Emoji Tweet has. The function preserves the input data structure, and the only change is it adds an extra column with information about Emoji category separated by | if there is more than one category.

Usage

emoji_categorize(tweet_tbl, tweet_text)

Arguments

tweet_tbl: A dataframe/tibble containing tweets/text.
tweet_text: The tweet/text column.

Value

A filtered dataframe with the presence of Emoji only, and with an extra column .emoji_category.
