All you need is the 'source' command.

:help source

First put your mappings into a module, let's say you call it foo.vim (it
can have any name or extention) and let's say you put it on your ~/.vim
path. Then in your ~/.vimrc put

source ~/.vim/foo.vim

and that'll do it. No need to create a plugin. About the only
advantage to making it into a plugin is you won't need the source line
in ~/.vimrc
