Make a static png file for an htmlwidget

widget2png(p, file, timeout = 500)

Arguments

p	htmlwidget object
file	where to save png file
timeout	plot render timeout in milliseconds (see details)

Details

This uses phantomjs (https://phantomjs.org) to render your htmlwidget in a headless browser and take a screenshot of it, creating a static output. This assumes that phantomjs has been installed on your machine and is available as a system call. For plots that take longer to load and render, you may need to increase the value of timeout. Note that this function is experimental.

Examples

# \donttest{
figure(tools = NULL) %>%
  ly_points(1:10) %>%
  widget2png("/tmp/test.png")
# }
