Magento 2.2.5 custom js not working when I call it from phtml file using uiComponent

Question

I have created admin form using uiComponent. I have called phtml file using <htmlContent name="html_content"> in xml file. I tired to call custom.js using below code but its not working.

<script type="text/x-magento-init">
    { 
        "*": {
            "Namespace_Module/js/custom": {
                "Data": <?= /* @noEscape */ json_encode($data, JSON_HEX_QUOT) ?>,
                "isSortable":  <?= (int)(!$block->getReadOnly()) ?>,
                "isReadOnly": <?= (int)$block->getReadOnly() ?>
            }   
        }
    }
</script>

This code is working fine if I call it using simple block method without uiComponent.

Please let me know how can I use my custom js file with uiComponent form.

You can add dependencies.

define(['your/module/path/or/alias'],function(module){  module.useMyMethod() });
