Including Other Contracts

Let us say that we have a contract that is getting a too large. If it has a modular structure, you might find it useful to use the #include statement to split the contract up over multiple files.

You take the code that you want to include and put it in a separate file, for example the contract names included:

(* This is "included.mligo" *)
(* Demonstrate CameLIGO inclusion statements, see includer.mligo *)

let foo = 144

// This is "included.jsligo"
// Demonstrate JsLIGO inclusion statements, see includer.jsligo

export const foo = 144;

And then you can include this code using the #include statement like so:

#include "gitlab-pages/docs/advanced/src/include/included.mligo"

let bar = foo

#include "gitlab-pages/docs/advanced/src/include/included.jsligo"

const bar = foo;
