No changes, you just need to have your visual slam output be of the right type on the /odom topic. There's not anything special about wheel encoder odometry. With that said your odometry will jump on loop closures for a VSLAM, so I might recommend instead using just visual odometry without loop closure.

edit: _especially_ because gmapping is a filter based slam implementation
