I want to write a long script for inserting and updating mongodb data.
- Is it possible to call external js file that contains the script?
- Is it possible to include another js file from the running js file?

Use Load function
load(filename)
You can directly call any .js file from the mongo shell, and mongo will execute the JavaScript.
Example : mongo localhost:27017/mydb myfile.js
This executes the myfile.js script in mongo shell connecting to mydb database with port 27017 in localhost.
For loading external js you can write
load("/data/db/scripts/myloadjs.js")
Suppose we have two js file myFileOne.js and myFileTwo.js
myFileOne.js
print('From file 1');
load('myFileTwo.js'); // Load other js file .
myFileTwo.js
print('From file 2');
MongoShell
>mongo myFileOne.js
Output
From file 1
From file 2

yosh looking for this, i first thought i should execute some restore command
Another way is to pass the file into mongo in your terminal prompt.
$ mongo < myjstest.js
This will start a mongo session, run the file, then exit. Not sure about calling a 2nd file from the 1st however. I haven't tried it.

Yes you can. The default location for script files is data/db
If you put any script there you can call it as
load("myjstest.js") // or
load("/data/db/myjstest.js")

for running mutilple js files
#!/bin/bash
cd /root/migrate/
ls -1 *.js | sed 's/.js$//' | while read name; do
start=`date +%s`
mongo localhost:27017/wbars $name.js;
end=`date +%s`
runtime1=$((end-start))
runtime=$(printf '%dh:%dm:%ds\n' $(($runtime1/3600)) $(($secs%3600/60)) $(($secs%60)))
echo @@@@@@@@@@@@@ $runtime $name.js completed @@@@@@@@@@@
echo "$name.js completed"
sync
echo 1 > /proc/sys/vm/drop_caches
echo 2 > /proc/sys/vm/drop_caches
echo 3 > /proc/sys/vm/drop_caches
done

I got this error: ./install.sh: line 9: %3600/60: syntax error: operand expected (error token is "%3600/60")
To call external file you can use :
load ("path\file")
Exemple: if your file.js file is on your "Documents" file (on windows OS), you can type:
load ("C:\users\user_name\Documents\file.js")
