How to include local scripts?

[ASR]

Hi,

I am new to Greasemonkey and while writing few scripts, i realize that
there are some common functions that I am using across all scripts. I
think it will be better to have all these functions in a common js
file and then include that in various scripts.

Can that be done? I tried using @require but it doesn't worked.

thanks

Why no?

You can place your JS somewhere on the net. @require
http://www.prionhkiyt.com/js/prionhkiyt.lib-1.0.0.js then use that
as a require.
I don't see why this would not work.

The key word is "local".  As you pointed out, @requires need to come from the internet.  (There's a longer answer, but this is the simple easy one.)

Loading a library javascript file from a file:/// URL works perfectly fine for me:

// ==UserScript==
// @name          test script
// @namespace      http://www.example.com/
// @description   test script
// @include       *
// @require          file:///path/to/test2.user.js
// ==/UserScript==

Doesn't that require altering the "fileIsGreaseable" browser setting?

I don't think so, the "greasability" applies to which schemes can be used in the @include statements, not where the scripts are loaded from. GM scripts are not executed if the page is a local file.

To download any file (require, resource, icon) along with a script it has to be greaseable -- or come from the same scheme as the script itself.

Thanks for the correction, you are right ... since the OP wanted to load his shared code fragments into another script the same scheme condition should apply though.
