There is any options to convert in Unicode symbols to description about slugify HOT 3 CLOSED

In theory this would be possible by adding a rules for Emoji or other unicode characters. However, we do not have such a list at the moment, because I think there would be a lot of discussion around what is the correct name. Just looking at your example, you would translate ❤️ into love, some people would translate it into heart and the official description is red heart.

I'm closing this issue, if you're interesting you can create a rule set which you can use just for your project (here is a database with emoji names) and you can create a PR and we will take it under consideration.

@ShivPandey you can use the following code with the https://github.com/ausi/slug-generator library:

$slugGenerator = new SlugGenerator([
	'preTransforms' => [
		':: [:Symbol:]; :: Any-Name; \'\N{\' > \' \'; \'}\' > \' \';',
	],
]);

$slugGenerator->generate('💩'); // pile-of-poo
$slugGenerator->generate('🙃'); // upside-down-face

$slugGenerator->generate('unicode ♥'); // unicode-black-heart-suit
$slugGenerator->generate('unicode ❤'); // unicode-heavy-black-heart
$slugGenerator->generate('unicode ❤️'); // unicode-heavy-black-heart
$slugGenerator->generate('unicode 👍'); // unicode-thumbs-up-sign

This converts symbols to their unicode names, but as you can see in the examples above they might not be the exact names you are looking for.
