Setuptools is a collection of enhancements to the Python distutils that allow developers to more easily build and distribute Python packages, especially ones that have dependencies on other packages.

Note: for Python 3.x
$ sudo apt-get install python3-setuptools

Using the same 'name' as declared in setup.py:
import pkg_resources # part of setuptools
...
tech_comp_version = pkg_resources.require("myapp_calendar")[0].version
logger.info("======== Artifact version: %s", tech_comp_version)
Note: It generates a dist/ subdirectory with the application package
./setup.py sdist
