#' @title Plot a timeline of earthquakes with labels
#'
#' @description This geom plots a time line of earthquakes with a point for each earthquake.
#' This geom adds a vertical line to each data point with a text annotation (the location of the earthquake)
#' attached to each line. There is an option to subset to n_max number of earthquakes, where we take the n_max
#' largest (by magnitude) earthquakes. Aesthetics are x, which is the date of the earthquake and label which takes
#' the location column from which annotations will be obtained.
#' This geom is the prototype required for \code{geom_timeline_label()} function to work.

#' @title Plot a labeled timeline of earthquakes within a given time frame
#'
#' @description This function utilizes the \code{GeomTimelineLable} geom to plot the earthquake events with
#' labels (location of the earthquake). There is an option to subset to n_max number of earthquakes, where we take the n_max
#' largest (by magnitude) earthquakes. In the provided example, the \code{color} aes reflects the number of deaths resulted from
#' the earthquake with grey ones indicating no data available. The \code{size} aes reflects the magnitude of the eqrthquake.
#' The X-axis is the date. n_max can be customized, the default value is 5.
