Is there any otel collector version that supports this new feature? about otel-profiling-agent

[Lincyaw]

It seems that I need to modify the makefile of the otel-collector, and use the corresponding version of otel-proto, since this feature is not merged into the otel-proto yet, thus I can not simply change the version of otel-protocol in the makefile of otel-collector.

petethepig/opentelemetry-collector#1

I guess this version probably can work, can the authors please verify it? or it there any way that can allow me to export the data with the current otel-collector?

Hi @Lincyaw 👋

As you have mentioned, open-telemetry/opentelemetry-proto#534 is not merged yet and to my knowledge, there are no OTel collectors implementing this protocol yet.

At the moment, I can not tell if petethepig/opentelemetry-collector#1 is based exactly on open-telemetry/opentelemetry-proto#534 or if a previous version is implemented. So we did not test this agent with petethepig/opentelemetry-collector#1.
We hope, that open-telemetry/opentelemetry-proto#534 gets merged soon and OTel collector and/or other implementations will use it.

For the mean time we provide devfiler to visualize data.

@Lincyaw You can print the logs to stdout, so you won't need to set up a remote RPC server. Does that meet your needs?
