If you need a more recent version of Unicode than the one of your Python version, you probably need to fetch an appropriate table directly from Unicode. Unlike some commercial offerings, is completely run and maintained in-house.We felt this was important because in the event of a commercial provider going out of business, your short URL would be lost. > ud.category('\U0001fae0') # melting face emoji added in Unicode v14 Tiny is open to anyone that would like to shorten a UCSF domain or affiliate website. Important caveat: Python's unicodedata module embeds a certain version of Unicode, so the information is potentially out of date.įor example, in my installation of Python 3.8, the Unicode version is 12.1.0, so it doesn't know about codepoints assigned in later versions of Unicode: > ud.unidata_version Return ud.category(char) not in ('Cn', 'Cs', 'Co') So a function for codepoint validity (as per the OP's definition) could look like this: def is_valid(char):
CODEPOINTS FACEBOOK MESSENGER CODE
Emoji sequences have more than one code point in the Code Emojis for. It also works for the control characters in the ASCII range: > ud.category('\x00')įurther categories for invalid codepoints (according to comments) are Cs ("Other, surrogate") and Co ("Other, private use"): > ud.category('\ud800') # lower surrogate and messaging apps like WhatsApp, Facebook Messenger, WeChat, iMessage etc. The examples from the OP are unassigned codepoints, which have a category of Cn ("Other, not assigned"). I believe the most straight-forward approach is to use unicodedata.category(). In : Path('D:/invalid_unicode.txt').write_text(',\n'.join(map(repr, invalid)))
I have used this method to identify all invalid codepoints: In : invalid = Now is the hacky part, chr doesn't decode invalid codepoints but it doesn't raise exceptions either, and the escape sequences will have length of 1 since they are treated as a single character, I have to repr the return value and check the results. I have come up with a rather hacky solution: if a codepoint is valid, trying to convert it to a character will either result in the decoded character or the '\xhh' escape sequence, else it will return the undecoded escape sequence exactly same as original, I can check the return value of chr and check if it starts with '\u' or '\U'. How can I check if a Unicode codepoint is valid? That is, it is unambiguously mapped to a authoritatively defined character.įor example, codepoint 720 is valid it is 0x2d0 in hex, and U+02D0 points to ː: In : hex(720)Īnd 127744 is valid: In : chr(127744)Īnd 0xe0000 is invalid: In : '\U000e0000' I am using Python 3 and I know all about hex, int, chr, ord, '\uxxxx' escape and '\U00xxxxxx' escape and Unicode has 1114111 codepoints. The Moaning emoji can also be used to express that someone is tired or bored with a situation.
