Depend on other files from Jenkins job dsl script

I have some large bash scripts in my job dsl files that I am declaring as 

String script = '''
  # large script
'''

and calling it from the shell method

shell(script)

How ever, I would like to break out the scripts into shell files. I tried declaring 

String script = new File('script.sh').text

But the job that executes the jenkins job dsl script does not appear to find the file, in fact I am not sure which location it is even executing from.

Use readFileFromWorkspace to read the contents of a file from a job workspace.

The path is specified relative to the workspace root.

The second example on the linked API docs above is for a batch file, but replace batch with shell and you have the solution for your case.

def runScript = readFileFromWorkspace('script.sh')
job('example-2') {
    steps {
        shell(runScript)
    }
}
