I like to keep my module's includes in an "includes" subdirectory, but rules doesn't seem to find "mymodule.rules.inc" in there (it works fine when in the module root directory).

I tried specifying the file using hook_rules_file_info() but that didn't work either.

Could anyone point me in the right direction please?

Thanks!

It's not currently possible. Would you want to work on it?

#1289558-2: Can mymodule.rules.inc be in different directory? leads me to believe we can't do anything about this. Please update this if there's a core issue where this as addressed.

alexweber, could you please update the docs page to reflect this?

Also leaving #1452540: Rules doesn't load rules.inc files as expected here for future reference.

@mitchell that's weird because of how Views does it. I think it finds views.inc anywhere in the module folder. I'll check it out but either will will update the docs for now.
