#' Static image exporting via orca
#' 
#' Superseded by [kaleido()].
#' 
#' @param p a plotly object.
#' @param file output filename.
#' @param format the output format (png, jpeg, webp, svg, pdf, eps).
#' @param scale Sets the image scale. Applies to all output images.
#' @param width Sets the image width. If not set, defaults to `layout.width` value. 
#' Applies to all output images.
#' @param height Sets the image height. If not set, defaults to `layout.height` value. 
#' Applies to all output images.
#' @param mathjax whether or not to include MathJax (required to render [TeX]).
#' If `TRUE`, the PLOTLY_MATHJAX_PATH environment variable must be set and point 
#' to the location of MathJax (this variable is also used to render [TeX] in 
#' interactive graphs, see [config]).
#' @param parallel_limit Sets the limit of parallel tasks run.
#' @param verbose Turn on verbose logging on stdout.
#' @param debug Starts app in debug mode and turn on verbose logs on stdout.
#' @param safe Turns on safe mode: where figures likely to make browser window 
#' hang during image generating are skipped.
#' @param more_args additional arguments to pass along to system command. This is useful
#' for specifying display and/or electron options, such as `--enable-webgl` or `--disable-gpu`.
#' @param ... for `orca()`, additional arguments passed along to `processx::run`. For 
#' `orca_serve()`, additional arguments passed along to `processx::process`.

#' Orca image export server
#' 
#' @inheritParams orca
#' @param port Sets the server's port number.
#' @param keep_alive Turn on keep alive mode where orca will (try to) relaunch server if process unexpectedly exits.
#' @param window_max_number Sets maximum number of browser windows the server can keep open at a given time.
#' @param request_limit Sets a request limit that makes orca exit when reached.
#' @param quiet Suppress all logging info.

#' @section Methods:
#' 
#' The `orca_serve()` function returns an object with two methods:
#' 
#' \describe{
#'   \item{\code{export(p, file = "plot.png", format = tools::file_ext(file), scale = NULL, width = NULL, height = NULL)}}{
#'     Export a static image of a plotly graph. Arguments found here are the same as those found in `orca()`
#'   }
#'   \item{\code{close()}}{Close down the orca server and kill the underlying node process.}
#' }
#' 
#' @section Fields:
#' 
#' The `orca_serve()` function returns an object with two fields:
#' 
#' \describe{
#'   \item{\code{port}}{The port number that the server is listening to.}
#'   \item{\code{process}}{An R6 class for controlling and querying the underlying node process.}
