verbake

A simple script that copies the value of version from pyproject.toml and uses it to overwrite the value of __version__ in a package's main __init__.py.

This is for getting around the problem of needing to remember to manually version bump both pyproject.toml and __init__.py (for those packages that need the version in both places) every time you update your project.

This also helps avoid an error that occurs when testing your package in remote environments like GitHub Actions which is caused by dynamically setting __version__ using importlib.metadata and other methods.

Install (PyPI)

pip install verbake

Usage

from verbake.baker import bake
bake()
