Like this?
https://www.yade-dem.org/sphinx/yade.eudoxos.html#yade._eudoxos.InteractionLocator.macroAroundPt
(Sorry, since it was in my private module, the docs is lacking; find the
algorith described qt
https://www.yade-dem.org/sphinx/yade.eudoxos.html#yade._eudoxos.SpiralInteractionLocator2d.macroAroundPt
though)

And also this one (where you can pass a callback function object)

I hope we are going to have 3 almost-identical implementations of the same
functionality, like with the stress tensor.
