Did access to the emoji git repo change after federating? I'm trying to update some of my sticker packs juche-rose

it changed after we moved away from self-hosting our git repo. here's my personal mirror, it’s linked on the sidebar of !emoji@hexbear.net

This is awesome and thank you! Is there a way to download the folders as a zip or something or do I have to download them images one at a time?

Also, it says that the folders are truncated and that 1000+files were omitted from each directory. Is this why there are 2 directories? Thank you again!

The two directories are ‘source images’ that are not resized (full resolution), and ‘resized images’, which are downsized to the 120px width boundary for use on the site. It’d hurt my workflow to organize them further, so it’s only a display thing on the side of the site that it’s truncated emilie-shrug

Expand the green drop-down that says code and click download as zip

Success! Thank you for hosting this and guiding me through access. Too cool

If you know how to you can get the emojis from https://hexbear.net/api/v3/site response

[–] CaliforniaSpectre@hexbear.net 2 points 1 year ago* (last edited 1 year ago) (1 children)

I do not. Does that mean the git repo storing all the images is restricted now?

[–] ksynwa@lemmygrad.ml 1 points 1 year ago* (last edited 1 year ago)

Maybe. I don't know what happened to the git repo. The way that emojis are configured has changed since updating the site backend so there wasn't a need to store them in the git repo anymore.

I'll help you out when I am at the computer.

edit: looks like whyesseff has already taken care of it here: https://lemmygrad.ml/comment/2350746

Is there a static website that lists them all along with their names? Right now, searchability is a little difficult.

There used to be all emote images listed by name in one gigantic git repo. It was super easy to search them and download the ones you like.
