Import Emoji into Rocket.Chat

Import Emoji.md

Usage

To use this drop these two files in beside a folder called emoji filled with the emoji you want to upload.

Run npm install to grab the needed dependencies.

Modify the host, user, and pass in the file.

Then run: node import-emoji.js

import-emoji.js

const { driver } = require('@rocket.chat/sdk');
const fs = require('fs');
const path = require('path');
const mime = require('mime-types');

// customize the following with your server and user account information
const HOST = 'yourserver';
const USER = 'youruser';
const PASS = 'yourpassword';
const SSL = true;  // server uses https ?

const emojiDir = './emoji';

var myuserid;
  

const run = async () => {

    try {
        const conn = await driver.connect( { host: HOST, useSsl: SSL})
        myuserid = await driver.login({username: USER, password: PASS});
    } catch (err) {
        console.error('Failed to connect', err);
        process.exit(1);
    }
    
    console.log(`Connected!  UserId is ${myuserid}`);

    const files = fs.readdirSync(emojiDir);

    for (const file of files) {
        const pathToFile = path.join(emojiDir, file);
        console.log(`Preparing to upload: ${file}`); 
        try {
            const stat = fs.statSync(pathToFile)

            // Finally its a file... lets do something with it
            if (stat.isFile()) {
                const mimeType = mime.lookup(pathToFile);
                var fileSplit = file.split('.');

                const emojiData = {
                    name: fileSplit[0],
                    aliases: '',
                    newFile: true,
                    extension: fileSplit[1]
                };

                await driver.callMethod('insertOrUpdateEmoji', emojiData);
            
                const fileData = fs.readFileSync(pathToFile);

		console.log(`Uploading: ${file} mimeType: ${mimeType}`);

                await driver.asyncCall('uploadEmojiCustom', [fileData, mimeType, emojiData]);

		console.log(`Finished Uploading: ${file}`);

                delete fileData;

            }
        } catch (err) {
            console.error(err);
        }

	await sleep(1000);

    }
}

function sleep(ms) {
	console.log(`Sleeping for ${ms}ms`);
	return new Promise((resolve) => {
		setTimeout(resolve, ms);
	});
}

run()
