CSV input instead of raw LLDP/CDP detail #17

Currently it looks like you only support raw LLDP/CDP detail info. Different vendors provide the details in slightly different formats and then you have cloud based interfaces like Meraki, Mist, etc that give you API version of the info. It would be awesome if I could provide a CSV of the info needed to draw out what is needed. This could be very powerful as people could tie together their own scripts to get all the CDP/LLDP like info and normalize it and then feed it to neighbor-parser.

In the old days we use to save Graphviz dot/etc files off and then update them as needed. I was thinking much the same thing here.

So you would want to be able to generate the graphs using CSV data?

I'm not sure what the graph feature is. Is that the drawing of the diagram?

If I look at your example hosted website I would think the diagram and the table would be an output from whatever input is used.
