How to access taglib in scripts meant for run-script?

Question

How to access ApplicationTagLib in a script meant for the grails command line run-script?

In case someone wonders what is the use case

This problem came up when I was trying to create a script for generating a json file (containing links to controllers and actions) for use in javascript files. More info in https://stackoverflow.com/questions/30763227/how-to-use-urls-rendered-as-javascript-variables-during-jasmine-unit-tests

I was considering using g.createLink in this script file but couldn't find how to use tag library in script file.

You can use below code to access your taglib

def grailsApplication 
def g = grailsApplication.mainContext.getBean('org.codehaus.groovy.grails.plugins.web.ta‌​glib.ApplicationTagLib')
