OTLP Output Option #540
Description
Is your feature request related to a problem? Please describe.
I'd like to incorporate popeye into my cluster's observability stack, but I don't see a clear path to getting the metrics into my stack as it exists today.
Describe the solution you'd like
Similar to the support for the Prometheus push gateway, I'd like the ability to export in the OTLP format which would allow for pushing the metric the OpenTelemetry collector I currently use.
Describe alternatives you've considered
I mentioned the existing support for the Prometheus metrics which is close. To get this to work, I would have to deploy a push gateway which I don't currently run in my cluster. OTLP is a vendor agnostic format which even Prometheus itself has support for so I think it seems like a reasonable addition to the tool.
Additional context
I understand you get a lot of requests for features and bug fixes. If I can find some free time soon, I'll take a stab and implementation by using the existing Prometheus support as a model. If you have any additional tips/guidance/advice that is appreciated.
