#' Shiny bindings for plotly
#' 
#' Output and render functions for using plotly within Shiny 
#' applications and interactive Rmd documents.
#' 
#' @param outputId output variable to read from
#' @param width,height Must be a valid CSS unit (like \code{"100\%"},
#'   `"400px"`, `"auto"`) or a number, which will be coerced to a
#'   string and have `"px"` appended. Note that, for height, using "auto" 
#'   or "100%" generally will not work as expected, because of how 
#'   height is computed with HTML/CSS.
#' @param inline use an inline (`span()`) or block container 
#' (`div()`) for the output
#' @param reportTheme whether or not to report CSS styles (if a sufficient
#' version of shiny and htmlwidgets is available).
#' @param expr An expression that generates a plotly
#' @param env The environment in which to evaluate `expr`.
#' @param quoted Is `expr` a quoted expression (with `quote()`)? This 
#'   is useful if you want to save an expression in a variable.
#' @param fill see [htmlwidgets::shinyWidgetOutput()] for explanation (requires
#'   a recent version of htmlwidgets).
#' @importFrom htmlwidgets shinyWidgetOutput
#' @importFrom htmlwidgets shinyRenderWidget

#' Access plotly user input event data in shiny
#' 
#' This function must be called within a reactive shiny context.
#' 
#' @param event The type of plotly event. All supported events are listed in the 
#' function signature above (i.e., the usage section).
#' @param source a character string of length 1. Match the value of this string 
#' with the `source` argument in [plot_ly()] (or [ggplotly()]) to respond to  
#' events emitted from that specific plot.
#' @param session a shiny session object (the default should almost always be used).
#' @param priority the priority of the corresponding shiny input value. 
#' If equal to `"event"`, then [event_data()] always triggers re-execution, 
#' instead of re-executing only when the relevant shiny input value changes 
#' (the default).
