Repolist Command
Command: repolist
dnf [options] repolist [--enabled|--disabled|--all]
Depending on the exact command lists enabled, disabled or
all known repositories. Lists all enabled repositories by
default. Provides more detailed information when -v option is
used.
This command by default does not force a sync of expired
metadata. See also Metadata Synchronization.
The code for this command is in
/usr/lib/python3.10/site-packages/dnf/cli/commands/repolist.py
When I run this on my Fedora system as
dnf --all repolist
there are no rhel repositories listed. This is reasonable. So, you
must be running the above command on a system where rhel is enabled or
available in some way. I don't know the mechanism that dnf uses to
determine that. I do get a bunch of repos that aren't local to
/etc/yum.repos.d, so it is running a different command than the other.
Maybe you could use the second form from a subprocess.call, and
capture and parse the output to get all the available repos. Or a
combination of the first technique and then only the rhel repos.
The dnf python code will be in /usr/lib/python3.*/sitepackages/dnf if
you want to look at the sources, where the asterisk is the version of
python on your system, e.g. 9 or 10
You can see what files are in the package python3-dnf and where they
are installed by running
/usr/bin/rpm -q --filesbypkg python3-dnf
