Migrating from setup.py to pyproject.toml

Fixed #148.

@wiseaidev I have one question. How do I define the version file in this new format? I used to update it in setup.py. I see dynamic = ["version"]. How do I use that? Everything else looks good.

Hey @marshalmiller, as the name suggests, the version will be assigned dynamically during the build process to the value of the __version__ variable in linkrot/__init__.py:

https://github.com/marshalmiller/linkrot/blob/e0ee66070134f5ab5206e4210bbe9a89f080d967/linkrot/__init__.py#L35

The version is now in a central location. You can run the following command to see it in action:

python -m build

* Creating virtualenv isolated environment...
* Installing packages in isolated environment... (hatchling>=1.8.0)
* Getting dependencies for sdist...
* Building sdist...
* Building wheel from sdist
* Creating virtualenv isolated environment...
* Installing packages in isolated environment... (hatchling>=1.8.0)
* Getting dependencies for wheel...
* Building wheel...
Successfully built linkrot-1.2.tar.gz and linkrot-1.2-py3-none-any.whl

Notice the version is set to 1.2.

Note: Besides, I forget about the cli entry point, just add the following at the bottom of the pyproject.toml file:

[project.scripts]
linkrot= "linkrot.cli:main"
