How can I download .rpm file from Jolla Store?

Hi,
Because the connection to Jolla Store is unstable in my country, I'd like to download all the package (.rpm) files from Jolla Store, and build a "Mirror Jolla Store" website to deliver apps for jolla users here.
So my question is:
- Does Jolla have this kind of API?
- Looks like I can install
pkconon my Linux and usepkcon download. If so, how can I add/enable Jolla Store repos? - Looks like I can use
pkcon search ..., how can I get all package names from Jolla Store repo? - Is it possible to get the icon/description/developer-name/flattr-button of the app (by unpacking rpm file or from some Jolla API)?
It's easy for WareHouse, but is it possible for Jolla Store?
Thanks :D, and hope this is not against Jolla's TOS.
EDIT chemist: spelling, phrasing
pkcon search name 'package'The packages are .RPM not .RMP (originally Red Hat Package Manager)
Take a look at this thread, which is asking something very similar; https://together.jolla.com/question/2721/jolla-application-store-web-version/

You know, some devs don't put their apps on OpenRepos because they don't want to release their RPMs into the public. Building a "Mirror Warehouse/OpenRepos" would also be easier since the devs are willing to have their packages downloaded.
