What is the regex to extract all the emojis from a string?

by

Using emoji-java i’ve wrote a simple method that removes all emojis including fitzpatrick modifiers. Requires an external library but easier to maintain than those monster regexes.

Use:

String input = "A string 😄with a \uD83D\uDC66\uD83C\uDFFFfew 😉emojis!";
String result = EmojiParser.removeAllEmojis(input);

emoji-java maven installation:

<dependency>
  <groupId>com.vdurmont</groupId>
  <artifactId>emoji-java</artifactId>
  <version>3.1.3</version>
</dependency>

gradle:

implementation 'com.vdurmont:emoji-java:3.1.3'

EDIT: previously submitted answer was pulled into emoji-java source code.
