eopkg3p has a Python API as a bonus and can be imported like so: import eopkg3p

build_pspec(pspecfile: Path)

Build eopkg package of a 3rd party app based on the app's pspec file from the Path object in the pspecfile argument. pspecfile has to be a Path object.

check_local_repo()

Check that the local repository directory ($HOME/.cache/eopkg3p/3rd-party) exists and that it's not empty.

extract_description(pspecfile: Path)

Return the description of a 3rd party app as a string based on the app's pspec file from the Path object in the pspecfile argument.

Return the release number of a 3rd party app as an integer based on the app's pspec file from the Path object in the pspecfile argument.

filter_installed(available: Dict[str, Path]) -> Dict[str, Path]*

If given the argument available as a dict object with string as first argument and a Path object as the second argument, the function will return a dict object with only the installed 3rd party apps.

filter_outdated(available: Dict[str, Path]) -> Dict[str, Path])
