#' @title Add Data to a leaflet map using Leaflet.glify
#'
#' @description
#'   Leaflet.glify is a WebGL renderer plugin for leaflet. See
#'   \url{https://github.com/robertleeplummerjr/Leaflet.glify} for details
#'   and documentation.
#'
#' @inheritParams leaflet::addPolylines
#' @param data sf/sp point/polygon/line data to add to the map.
#' @param color Object representing the color. Can be of class integer, character with
#'   color names, HEX codes or random characters, factor, matrix, data.frame, list, json or formula.
#'   See the examples or \link{makeColorMatrix} for more information.
#' @param opacity feature opacity. Numeric between 0 and 1.
#'   Note: expect funny results if you set this to < 1.
#' @param radius point size in pixels.
#' @param popup Object representing the popup. Can be of type character with column names,
#'   formula, logical, data.frame or matrix, Spatial, list or JSON. If the length does not
#'   match the number of rows in the data, the popup vector is repeated to match the dimension.
#' @param weight line width/thickness in pixels for \code{addGlPolylines}.
#' @param src whether to pass data to the widget via file attachments.
#' @param pane A string which defines the pane of the layer. The default is \code{"overlayPane"}.
#' @param contextMenu a \code{\link[htmlwidgets]{JS}} function, that is passed to contextmenu.
#'  See the example in \code{./inst/examples/contextmenu.R}
#' @param ... Used to pass additional named arguments to \code{\link[yyjsonr]{write_json_str}} or
#'   \code{\link[yyjsonr]{write_geojson_str}} & to pass additional arguments to the
#'   underlying JavaScript functions. Typical use-cases include setting \code{'digits'} to
#'   round the point coordinates or to pass a different \code{'fragmentShaderSource'} to
#'   control the shape of the points. Use
#'   \itemize{
#'      \item{\code{'point'} (default) to render circles with a thin black outline}
#'      \item{\code{'simpleCircle'} for circles without outline}
#'      \item{\code{'square'} for squares without outline}
#'   }
#'   Additional arguments could be \code{'sensitivity'}, \code{'sensitivityHover'} or
#'   \code{'vertexShaderSource'}. See a full list at the
#'   \href{https://github.com/robertleeplummerjr/Leaflet.glify}{Leaflet.glify}
#'   repository.
#'
#'
#' @note
#'   MULTILINESTRINGs and MULTIPOLYGONs are currently not supported!
#'   Make sure you cast your data to LINESTRING or POLYGON first using:
#'   \itemize{
#'      \item{\code{sf::st_cast(data, "LINESTRING")}}
#'      \item{\code{sf::st_cast(data, "POLYGON")}}
#'   }
#'
#' @section Shiny Inputs:
#'   The objects created with \code{leafgl} send input values to Shiny as the
#'   user interacts with them. These events follow the pattern
#'   \code{input$MAPID_glify_EVENTNAME}.
#'   The following events are available:
#'
#'   \itemize{
#'     \item \strong{Click Events:}
#'       \code{input$MAPID_glify_click}
#'     \item \strong{Mouseover Events:}
#'       \code{input$MAPID_glify_mouseover}
#'     \item \strong{Mouseout Events:}
#'       \code{input$MAPID_glify_mouseout}
#'   }
#'
#'
#'   Each event returns a list containing:
#'   \itemize{
#'     \item \code{lat}: Latitude of the object or mouse cursor
#'     \item \code{lng}: Longitude of the object or mouse cursor
#'     \item \code{id}: The layerId, if any
#'     \item \code{group}: The group name of the object
#'     \item \code{data}: The properties of the feature
#'   }
