REPL does not include any current Dangerfile context

When using something like: yarn danger -- pr https://github.com/artsy/emission/pull/499 --repl

It currently doesn't matter what you've set up in your Dangerfile, it won't pass on the local context in the form of consts, functions et al. This threw me off, had to C&P a bunch of work before I could dig in.

Ideally the REPL's context would include all of the Dangerfile's current context. Maybe we can include some text beforehand saying how to use the repl too.

I'm not sure where the local context of the Dangerfile lives in order to inject it into the REPL. Good idea to include some text about how to use the REPL too. ❤️

I wonder if it makes more sense to modify the Dangerfile's source to run the REPL inside itself instead of from the outside looking inwards

[deecewan]

are we talking about having variables from the Dangerfile available in the REPL?

I mean, this could work by injecting the REPL creation into the end of the Dangerfile, and running danger, right? I think this is a good call.

Yeah 👍
