It's probably best if you explain exactly what you want to do.

If you want to work backwards from a RPM to the recipe, then binary
RPMs have a Source RPM metadata field and the srpm is named after the
recipe:

$ rpm -qpi connman-tests-1.24-r0.15.corei7_64.rpm | grep Source
Source RPM  : connman-1.24-r0.15.src.rpm
