How to configure a script path?

[TiansuYu]

I am building a CLI tool and tries to bind the script path to cli name. e.g. in Poetry this is https://python-poetry.org/docs/pyproject/#scripts. However, I could not find any instructions on how to do this in UV. Could you enlighten me please?

With uv this can just be done via the normal [project] table in the pyproject.toml file. https://packaging.python.org/en/latest/guides/writing-pyproject-toml/#creating-executable-scripts

I have a project that i want to add a script entrypoint to run src/xyz/main.py:main (main() function inside src/xyz/main.py), and my section in pyproject.toml looks like this

[project.scripts]
xyz = "src.xyz.main:main"

uv errors out with

-> % uv run xyz
error: Failed to spawn: `xyz`
  Caused by: No such file or directory (os error 2)

The error messages looks a bit cryptic for me to understand how have I configured the path wrong.

Do you have a [build-system] defined for your project? (https://docs.astral.sh/uv/concepts/projects/#build-systems)
