Adjust size of leaflet map in rmarkdown html

I'd like to change the height and width of leaflet map outputs in html document. Is there a simple way to do this in R markdown without getting into whole CSS business?

```{r}
library(leaflet)
library(dplyr)

m <- leaflet() %>% setView(lng = -71.0589, lat = 42.3601, zoom = 12)
m %>% addTiles() 
```

Ideally, I want the width of map to be the same width of code block as shown below.

To elaborate on the other answers:

My understanding is that fig.width and fig.height don't work for leaflet (or plotly) because they are html objects, not 'true figures' as far as knitr is concerned. leaflet (and plotly) do however respond to out.width, which is why it works.



In case anyone ever has a similar situation to me:

I have a code chunk which conditionally includes either a leaflet map (for html output), or 4x saved ggplot .png images using knitr::include_graphics(p1, p2, p3, p4) (for pdf output). In order to tile the 4 ggplot objects in a 2x2 grid, I had to set out.width = '50%', but this also reduced the width of the leaflet output.

The solution was to include leaflet(width = '100%') in the code, and out.width = '50%' in the chunk header. leaflet(width = '100%') seems to override out.width = '50%', giving me either a full sized leaflet in html outputs, or 50% width ggplot figures.

This works fine:

SomeData %>% 
  leaflet(height=2000, width=2000) %>% 
  addTiles() %>% 
  addMarkers(clusterOption=markerClusterOptions())

Here SomeData is a dataframe containing columns: Lat and Long.

I found that changing fig.width and fig.height did not change the size of my leaflet maps. However, changing a different parameter/option did.

Try changing the width/height using this in the header for the code chunk:

{r, width = 40, height = 30}

Or alternatively, another thing that has worked for me is to use this (in this case, do not put anything in the chunk header:

m <- leaflet(width = "100%") %>%

you can set like a global figure size to the whole document... But I think your code chunks will rescale, the images not.

library(knitr)
opts_chunk$set(fig.width=12, fig.height=8)

Actually, I didn't checked it with leaflets. Hope this code is still working.
