this is not well suited to RNA so this is a native python api.
This uses:
bpy.data.libraries.load(filepath, link=False, relative=False)
however the return value needs to use pythons context manager, this means the library loading is confined to a block of code and python cant leave a half loaded library state.
eg, load a single scene we know the name of:
with bpy.data.libraries.load(filepath) as (data_from, data_to):
data_to.scenes = ["Scene"]
eg, load all scenes:
with bpy.data.libraries.load(filepath) as (data_from, data_to):
data_to.scenes = data_from.scenes
eg, load all objects starting with 'A'
with bpy.data.libraries.load(filepath) as (data_from, data_to):
data_to.objects = [name for name in data_from.objects if name.startswith("A")]
As you can see gives 2 objects like 'bpy.data', but containing lists of strings which can be moved from one into another.
