Cinema4D: How do I import/include/embed a user python script into another?

Question

I would like to embed a script file full of often used defs into other script files. For example, I would like test.py to load the contents of defs.py (which is in the same folder) into itself in line.

When I try adding

import defs

into the body inside test.py I get error "No module named defs"

I tried adding the init file into the folder that holds the two files but get the same error. — user2016210, Aug 13 '18 at 16:56
With test.py loaded in the Script Manager panel I click on the Execute Button — user2016210, Aug 13 '18 at 17:12
@user2016210, did you ever solve this issue? I'm also curious. — joejoejoejoe4, Apr 04 '20 at 06:58

For anybody else facing this issue. Just add this on top of your script:

import sys
sys.path.append(os.path.dirname(__file__))
