Using Functions inside here document

Question

I have a script which has a few functions inside it which the main body uses to execute. Now, I want to run this script on 3 remote unix machines. Which is the neatest way to do this ? Most importantly, I don't to write a second script for remote connection. Everything should be inside this one script.

I've tried heredoc with ssh, which is not working because of the big functions !

Move the functions inside the heredoc. It may require some changes to the code structure but it will work.

ssh app01.datacentre.private <<EOD
hostdatefunc () {
echo \$(hostname) \$(date)
}
hostdatefunc
EOD

You'll get the hostname and date on the remote server, not yours. Works. Stupid example, but proof of concept.
