How to Dynamically change Icon Button to String or Emoji

Question

So I am Making a Todo App, which has a work of Emoji in it. I am Currently Using PubPackage, emoji_picker: ^0.1.0 For its help i can open and Close Emoji Keyboard Easily.

BTW, the Code You can see, is a Code of Opening EmojiKeyboard.

 Widget emojiSelect() {
  return EmojiPicker(
      numRecommended: 25,
      recommendKeywords: ["sing", "coding"],
      columns: 7,
      rows: 3,
      onEmojiSelected: (emoji, catergory) {
        print(emoji);
      });
}

Here, when I am Pressing the button, A Emoji Keyboard is Opening Perfectly, And I am pretty happy with it.

Now, I want to Make something, like if we Click on one of the Emoji which is resting inside the Emoji_keyboard then the Icon as you can see(in the below image)

Changes to Emoji, which User Clicked through KeyBoard.

Is there a Way, the Icon to change itself to "Emoji" that the user Clicked and if we long-press the same Button we can again Edit the Emoji to choose another, as per our choice?

The Whole Code, Pretty much looks like this,

return Wrap(
      children: [
        WillPopScope(
          child: Column(
            mainAxisAlignment: MainAxisAlignment.end,
            children: [
              Wrap(
                //height: MediaQuery.of(context).size.height / 4.8,
                children: [
                  Column(
                    mainAxisAlignment: MainAxisAlignment.start,
                    children: [
                      TextFormField(
                        focusNode: focusNode,
                        autofocus: false,
                        autocorrect: true,
                        decoration: InputDecoration(
                          hoverColor: Colors.amber,
                          border: InputBorder.none,
                          prefixIcon: Icon(CarbonIcons.pen_fountain),
                          hintText: "What toodo?",
                          hintStyle: TextStyle(

        ),
      ],
    );

Solution

Seems like the selected emoji type is String so basically on selection of emoji you need to display a Text Widget in place of the icon.

String selectedEmoji;


 Widget emojiSelect() {
  return EmojiPicker(
      numRecommended: 25,
      recommendKeywords: ["sing", "coding"],
      columns: 7,
      rows: 3,
      onEmojiSelected: (emoji, catergory) {
        setState((){
         selectedEmoji = emoji;
       })
      });
}

And the place where you show the icon has to be replaced with the Text() widget conditionally

 IconButton(
   icon: selectedEmoji==null? Icon(CarbonIcons.face_add):Text(selectedEmoji),
   onPressed: () {
     setState(() {
     focusNode.unfocus();
     focusNode.canRequestFocus = false;
     showEmojiKeyboard = !showEmojiKeyboard;
   });
 },
 color: Colors.black54,
)
