Here's some information i managed to gather by looking at swig source and py code. A lot of help gave cli/test_cli.c, had no clue where to start from.

You may also find useful poldek/python/test.py from poldek cvs

import poldek
poldek.lib_init()
ctx = poldek.poldek_ctx()
ctx.load_config("/etc/poldek/poldek.conf")
ctx.setup()

• ctx.load_config(CONFIGFILE)

CONFIGFILE string path to config file

• ctx.configure(CONSTANT, “value”)

>>> import poldekmod
>>> ctx.configure(poldekmod.POLDEK_CONF_PM, "vrpm")
1
>>> ctx.configure(poldekmod.POLDEK_CONF_CACHEDIR, "/tmp/cache")
1

• ctx.get_avail_packages()

sample

print ctx.get_avail_packages()

poldek_ts(ctx, FLAGS)

where flags can be (from poldek_ts.c::poldek_ts_setf):

• POLDEK_TS_INSTALL
• POLDEK_TS_UNINSTALL
• POLDEK_TS_VERIFY

ts = poldek.poldek_ts(ctx, 0)
ts = poldek.poldek_ts(ctx, poldekmod.POLDEK_TS_INSTALL)
ts = poldek.poldek_ts(ctx, poldekmod.POLDEK_OP_GREEDY)

cctx = poldek.poclidek_ctx(ctx)
cmd = cctx.rcmd_new(ts)

>>> rcmd = poldek.poclidek_rcmd(cctx, ts)
>>> rcmd.execline("ls xmms*")
1
>>> a = rcmd.get_packages()
>>> print a
