How to convert a image from Google Map(Div)?

1.
Hello. Thanks for reading my article in advance.
As you can see above picture, I have displayed a map using Google Map API.
I want to convert a image from that google map using JavaScript.
Who is Someone expert in this part?
Let's discuss in a detail.
Thanks

I have got a solution.
We can use html2canvas library.

html2canvas(document.getElementById("[your map id]"), {
    useCORS: true,
}).then(function(canvas) {
    var img = canvas.toDataURL("image/jpeg");
    var image = new Image();
    image.src = img;
    document.getElementById("[div to display an image]").appendChild(image);
});
Enter fullscreen mode Exit fullscreen mode

It just displays the google map as an image.
Thanks

Use stack overflow if you need help. Use DEV to demonstrate the solution when you have one
