var	Address variable in the target data set, which should contain the house number, street directionals, name, and suffix.
zip	Name of zipcode variable in the taget data set (optional).
class	Output class; one of either "sf" or "tibble".
local	Name of object containing a local geocoder built with gw_build_geocoder
local_short	Name of object containing a local, short style geocoder built with gw_build_geocoder
local_place	Name of object containing a local, placename style geocoder built with gw_build_geocoder
