Easiest way to parse OTLP in Python?

[GrahamLea]

I'm looking to do a project where I'll want to parse OTLP in Python.

Is there a Python OTLP parser available anywhere in the open-telemetry ecosystem that I could leverage/re-use?

If not, what would be the steps to create one?
Is it pretty trivial to grab the OTLP proto and generate a Python parser using the protobuf project?
Any pitfalls I shhould be aware of?

We already release a generate proto as a package https://pypi.org/project/opentelemetry-proto/. This is the same package used in OTLP exporters. And it should be straight forward to use Message API to ser/deser https://googleapis.dev/python/protobuf/latest/google/protobuf/message.html#google.protobuf.message.Message

Sounds great. I'll give it a try. Thanks!
