Run ruby file in rails console

Question

I've created a file ebm.rb script to add new entries to a database in rails.

The file is very long, and uses some rails models.

Can I easily execute ebm.rb in the rails console?

I tried something with load and require, but that didn't work. My ebm.rb file is located in C:\Sites\ebm and my rails project in C:\Sites\rublesql.

You can run the code in the file in the context of your rails app with

rails runner
