How to get latest pip package containing a word in the version name? -

in private pip repository there package called 'test_package'.

the package has qa , prod version differentiated v.v.v.prod , v.v.v.qa v major, minor, , micro.

how package latest version qa or prod? give context, there docker job pulling latest package each time runs , needs pull qa or prod.

would better way possibly have 2 packages 'test_package_qa' , 'test_package_prod'? there way copy package , rename package through pip commands if better way go? (e.g. test_package_qa-1.0.1 , copy test_package_prod-1.0.0 test_package_qa latest on version 1.1.0, 1.0.1 1 want release prod)

following naming conventions explained here should use versioning schema uses v.v.v production , v.v.v.devn pre-release/development versions, e.g. 1.0.0 , 1.0.1.dev0.

pip install lastest production version unless use --pre parameter or try explicitly install version.
