Downloading Canvas element to an image

by

Solution that requires NO BUTTON:

var download = function(){
  var link = document.createElement('a');
  link.download = 'filename.png';
  link.href = document.getElementById('canvas').toDataURL()
  link.click();
}

Useful if you have other triggers for downloading, or triggers that you can’t easily reference.
