Emoji List in NSPopover on macOS like Messages App

I want to show an NSPopover in my Mac app that lists the emoji just like Apple's Messages app does like this:

Messages Emoji Popover

All I can figure out so far is that I can show the character palette in my app using this:

NSApp.orderFrontCharacterPalette(nil)

But that shows the palette as a separate window like this: macOS Character Palette

Does anyone know how I can embed the character palette in an NSPopover and retrieve the selected emoji in my app (similar to how Apple does it in Messages)?

Set your textView, textField, or any other view as the sender of NSApp.orderFrontCharacterPalette(_:).

NSApp.orderFrontCharacterPalette(self.textField)
