'global' functions? / user library?

There are some functions that I use in several dzVents scripts. At the moment this is a copy/paste thing.
Question: is it possible to call functions 'outside' the current script and create a central library?

I use this in regular LUA scripts to include a file with my standard functions:
Code: Select all
dofile("/home/pi/domoticz/scripts/lua/general_functions.lua")
Assume it works the same in DzVents as they are LUA.

Yes that will work in dzVents but on top of that, dzVents has a kind of builtin mechanism for this; called
helper functions
