Different sized circles on leaflet legend

[Hugh Sturrock]

Hi all,

I'm trying to create a leaflet map with points sized by a variable. Is it possible to create a legend with different sized circles representing the different variable values? I found another post showing how to convert squares to circles in the legend, but am not sure how to change the size of different circles in the legend.

For example, here's a dummy script which creates 10 points associated with 2 classes of a variable (5 and 10). I'd like a legend with two circles the same size as that specified with addCircleMarkers with a radius of 5 and 10. If anyone can modify to create what I want I would be extremely grateful! Thanks!

library(shiny)
library(leaflet)

#create data
Points<-data.frame(x=runif(10,20,21), y=runif(10,0,1), var=rep(c(5,10),5))
map = leaflet() %>% addTiles()

# Set up shiny app
shinyApp(ui=bootstrapPage(
tags$style(type = "text/css", "html, body {width:100%;height:100%}",
".leaflet .legend i{
border-radius: 50%;
width: 10px;
height: 10px;
margin-top: 4px;
}
"
),
leafletOutput("myMap", width = "100%", height = "100%")),

server= function(input, output){

output$myMap = renderLeaflet({map %>% 
    addCircleMarkers(Points$x,Points$y,radius=Points$var) %>%
    addLegend(colors=rep("blue",2), labels=c(5,10))
  })
})
