Convert REQUIRE to Project.toml and Manifest.toml

New to Julia
14

I have updated the script to work with Julia 1.5
When I ran the script, I was getting:

ERROR: LoadError: type Nothing has no field uuid

import Pkg
import Base: SHA1
using SHA, UUIDs

function uuid5(namespace::UUID, key::String)
    data = [reinterpret(UInt8, [namespace.value]); codeunits(key)]
    u = reinterpret(UInt128, sha1(data)[1:16])[1]
    u &= 0xffffffffffff0fff3fffffffffffffff
    u |= 0x00000000000050008000000000000000
    return UUID(u)
end

uuid5(namespace::UUID, key::AbstractString) = uuid5(namespace, String(key))

const uuid_dns = UUID(0x6ba7b810_9dad_11d1_80b4_00c04fd430c8)
const uuid_julia_project = uuid5(uuid_dns, "julialang.org")
const uuid_package = uuid5(uuid_julia_project, "package")
