Feature request: Support via json about keymap-drawer

[caksoylar]

It is something on my list, although the priority is low given:

• VIA already visualizes the keymap itself (although not all layers at once unless they added a print option?)
• qmk via2json can (in theory) be used to convert the keymap to the QMK json keymap format keymap-drawer can parse

I would be open to having it in the repo and having feedback e.g. in the form of an issue like this one helps, so thanks for opening.

(Note to self, I should refactor the parse module to split it up further since it will get unwieldy if we add more parsers.)

Thank you for the update! Since it is confirmed to work, I'll expand the README to add an example command like yours.

I will drop a link to https://github.com/YAL-Tools/vial-to-keymap-drawer here, which supports Vial and VIA files.

Thanks @caksoylar for quick reply.
TIL about qmk via2json, let me try that first.
VIA already show image, but can not export or generate it programmatically, I want to explore more things before come back screenshot my VIA layout :D
Also feel free to close this issue if you want.
Many thanks.

I'll keep it open since it is eventually planned. I'd appreciate if you let me know how it goes with qmk via2json!

Sorry for late reply, but it works!

So I run qmk via2json with my gist via layout json:

qmk via2json -kb dztech/dz60rgb_wkl/v2 dz60rgb_wkl_v2.layout.json -o qmk.json

Then upload to your website as you can see here
