Including a groovy script in another groovy

Question

I have read how to simply import a groovy file in another groovy script

I want to define common functions in one groovy file and call those functions from other groo

Answer 1

For late-comers, it appears that groovy now support the :load file-path command which simply redirects input from the given file, so it is now trivial to include library scripts.

It works as input to the groovysh & as a line in a loaded file:
groovy:000> :load file1.groovy

file1.groovy can contain:
:load path/to/another/file invoke_fn_from_file();
