Closes #346.
Python packaging documentation explicitly warns that commands like
python setup.py sdist bdist_wheel
are deprecated and “MUST NOT be run anymore”.This PR modernizes our publishing workflow as recommended there. The
build
module ensures more reproducible builds by requiring build dependencies to be explicitly declared (in apyproject.toml
file) and building the project in an isolated virtual environment. As a nice side effect, this PR also cleans up some helper code which was no longer necessary.
