## Convert ggplot2 to plotly

### Description

This function converts a `ggplot2::ggplot()` object to a plotly object.

### Usage

    ggplotly(p = ggplot2::last_plot(), width = NULL, height = NULL,
      tooltip = "all", dynamicTicks = FALSE, layerData = 1,
      originalData = TRUE, source = "A", ...)

### Arguments

`p` | a ggplot object.
`width` | Width of the plot in pixels (optional, defaults to automatic sizing).
`height` | Height of the plot in pixels (optional, defaults to automatic sizing).
`tooltip` | a character vector specifying which aesthetic mappings to show in the tooltip. The default, "all", means show all the aesthetic mappings (including the unofficial "text" aesthetic). The order of variables here will also control the order they appear. For example, use `tooltip = c("y", "x", "colour")` if you want y first, x second, and colour last.
`dynamicTicks` | should plotly.js dynamically generate axis tick labels? Dynamic ticks are useful for updating ticks in response to zoom/pan interactions; however, they can not always reproduce labels as they would appear in the static ggplot2 image.
`layerData` | data from which layer should be returned?
`originalData` | should the "original" or "scaled" data be returned?
`source` | a character string of length 1. Match the value of this string with the source argument in `event_data()` to retrieve the event data corresponding to a specific plot (shiny apps can have multiple plots).
`...` | arguments passed onto methods.

### Details

Conversion of relative sizes depends on the size of the current graphics device (if no device is open, width/height of a new (off-screen) device defaults to 640/480). In other words, `height` and `width` must be specified at runtime to ensure sizing is correct. For examples on how to specify the output container's `height`/`width` in a shiny app, see `plotly_example("shiny", "ggplotly_sizing")`.

    ## Not run:
    # simple example
    ggiris <- qplot(Petal.Width, Sepal.Length, data = iris, color = Species)
    ggplotly(ggiris)

    data(canada.cities, package = "maps")
    viz <- ggplot(canada.cities, aes(long, lat)) +
      borders(regions = "canada") +
      coord_equal() +
      geom_point(aes(text = name, size = pop), colour = "red", alpha = 1/2)
    ggplotly(viz, tooltip = c("text", "size"))

    # linked scatterplot brushing
    d <- highlight_key(mtcars)
    qplot(data = d, x = mpg, y = wt) %>%
      subplot(qplot(data = d, x = mpg, y = vs)) %>%
      layout(title = "Click and drag to select points") %>%
      highlight("plotly_selected")

    # more brushing (i.e. highlighting) examples
    demo("crosstalk-highlight-ggplotly", package = "plotly")

    # client-side linked brushing in a scatterplot matrix
    highlight_key(iris) %>%
      GGally::ggpairs(aes(colour = Species), columns = 1:4) %>%
      ggplotly(tooltip = c("x", "y", "colour")) %>%
      highlight("plotly_selected")
