Decode mcap files with Python

[JohannesPankert]

Hello

great tool! It is really easy to integrate this in C++ code to log data for debugging controller code.
I am able to visualize the mcap files in plotjuggler but I have not managed to open them in python yet.

Do I need to re-implement the DataTamerParser as a DecoderFactory in python?
If yes, do you plan to plan to do this and add a python package to the project?
I thought that one of the advantages of mcap was that the file format is self contained but if it requires the users to write custom parsers it makes things a bit complicated.

This is precisely the next thing I will implement. stay tuned

Great, looking forward to it!

Is there any news about the Python compatibility? 🙂

I think this can be addressed in a more generic way -> #34
