Including a groovy script in another groovy

groovy

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 groovy files.

I understand this would be using Groovy like a scripting language i.e, I dont need classes/objects. I am trying to something like dsl that can be done in groovy. All variables will be asserted from Java and I want to execute groovy script in a shell.

Is this possible at all ? Can someone provide some example.

evaluate(new File("../tools/Tools.groovy"))

Put that at the top of your script. That will bring in the contents of a groovy file (just replace the file name between the double quotes with your groovy script).

I do this with a class surprisingly called "Tools.groovy".

You should be able to do:

import groovy.sql.Sql

@GrabConfig(systemClassLoader=true)
@Grab('mysql:mysql-connector-java:5.1.19')
def getConnection() {
    def dbUrl = 'jdbc:mysql://database1.c5vveqm7rqgx.eu-west-1.rds.amazonaws.com:3306/vouchers_prod'
    def dbUser = 'pucaroot'
    def dbPassword = 'bigsecret'
    def driverClass = "com.mysql.jdbc.Driver"

    return Sql.newInstance(dbUrl, dbUser, dbPassword, driverClass)
}

getConnection().class
