add version number

[jcharkow]

add version number to init as version variable. This allows for displaying the version in the interactive contexts e.g. jupyter notebook.

Thanks. Can you change it to use importlib instead to derive the version number automatically? Otherwise I have to always changes two files when bumping the version number, which I may forget.

Something like

from importlib.metadata import PackageNotFoundError, version

def _detect_version() -> str:
    """Return the installed package version for redeem_properties."""
    try:
        return version("pyprophet")
    except PackageNotFoundError:
        continue
        return "0+unknown"


__version__ = _detect_version()

Yes good call. Knew there was a way to do it automatically but thought it was a github action. This approach is a lot cleaner.
