Additional Leaflet plugins for R that work under Shiny

Leaflet for R has support for several of the many available Leaflet plugins, but implementing others in R is non-trivial. Additional plugins in this package are tested under Shiny, both locally and on shinyapps.io, so you can use these in Shiny-based web pages. I'll continue to add plugins here as I develop them.

Installation

devtools::install_github('bwcompton/leaflet.lagniappe')

Example

library(leaflet)
library(leaflet.lagniappe)

leaflet() |>
addTiles() |>
osmGeocoder()
addFullscreen()

Included plugins

1. osmGeocoder. Provides a field on a Leaflet map for a user to enter an address or place name. The map will zoom and center to the entered location.
2. addFullscreen. Adds a full screen control to the map.

leaflet.lagniappe's Issues

"Run examples" in help renders poorly in RStudio

The example in help runs fine when copied and pasted into the R console in RStudio, but it looks like crap and is nonfunctional when clicking "Run examples" in the Help pane. I haven't been able to figure this out yet. This doesn't affect the performance of this code, it's just an ugly mar on the documentation.

Implement Leaflet.fullscreen plugin

I've been using the version from leaflet.extras (https://github.com/bhaskarvk/leaflet.extras), but that repository has been abandoned, and it uses elderly JavaScript code that may have security vulnerabilities.

I want to re-implement it from https://github.com/Leaflet/Leaflet.fullscreen.

Note that the JS version is also quite old, and may be the same version as that used by leaflet.extras. I don't know what security implications there might be. Research needed.
