title: How can I let others install my Google Apps Script?
body: <p>I've made a simple script in Google Apps Script. The script builds forms based on a spreadsheet, the script itself is part of the spreadsheet. It adds a menu item. People would like to use it. They are non-technical people, so I would like to make the installation of my script as easy as possible. With 'installation' I mean a way to 'import' my script into their spreadsheet and automatically set up the needed triggers so the menu item becomes visible. It should be possible for anyone to install it.
  I've been thinking of the following solutions:</p>
  
  <ul>
  <li>Publishing as an add-on: my script wouldn't qualify, and even then I can't wait for Google's approval.</li>
  <li>Copy-paste. I don't like this, it's way too complicated.</li>
  </ul>
  
  <p>I've looked at this question: <a href="https://stackoverflow.com/questions/5334751/how-do-i-share-a-script-i-wrote-with-my-co-workers-on-the-same-google-apps-accou">https://stackoverflow.com/questions/5334751/how-do-i-share-a-script-i-wrote-with-my-co-workers-on-the-same-google-apps-accou</a>, but the people wanting to install it are not on the same domain in my case. The question is also 3 years old.</p>
  
  <p><strong>EDIT</strong>: As it turns out, there doesn't seem to be a solution. I've filed a feature request  here: <a href="https://code.google.com/p/google-apps-script-issues/issues/detail?id=4122&amp;thanks=4122&amp;ts=1403949074" rel="nofollow noreferrer">https://code.google.com/p/google-apps-script-issues/issues/detail?id=4122&amp;thanks=4122&amp;ts=1403949074</a></p>
