How to save a leaflet map in Shiny

Viewed 7270

Following on from this question, I am looking to save and download a leaflet map as a png or jpeg image. I have the following code but I keep getting an error.

ui <- fluidPage(
  leafletOutput("map"),
  downloadButton("dl")
)

server <- function(input, output, session) {
  output$map <- renderLeaflet({
    leaflet() %>% 
      addTiles()
  })

  output$dl <- downloadHandler(
    filename = "map.png",

    content = function(file) {
      mapshot(input[["map"]], file = file)
    }
  )
}

shinyApp(ui = ui, server = server)

The error I get when I try to download (by clicking the button) is

Warning: Error in system.file: 'package' must be of length 1

Bonus points if you can tell me how to get this working with leafletProxy.
