Python build puts wrong version number in filenames

Question

When I run python -m build , the tar and whl files that are created use the wrong version of my package in the filenames.

Here is my setup.cfg :

[metadata]
# This is required for any package to install with a name
name = stockpyl

# Since we are using a "src" layout, we need the following:
[options]
package_dir=
    =src
packages=find:

[options.packages.find]
where=src
[bumpver]
current_version = "0.0.1"
version_pattern = "MAJOR.MINOR.PATCH"
commit_message = "bump version {old_version} -> {new_version}"
commit = True
tag = True
push = False

[bumpver:file_patterns]
setup.cfg =
    current_version = "{version}"

The files created by build are named stockpyl-0.0.0.tar.gz and stockpyl-0.0.0-py3-none-any.whl . I assumed that build would grab the version number (0.0.1) from setup.cfg but it doesn't seem to be. Where does it get the version number from? How do I tell it to use the current version?

Fixed by adding

version = 0.0.1

under [metadata] .
