ERROR: ReferenceError: robot is not defined

[StubbsPKS]

I am using hubot with Hipchat, and I am attempting to set up DYNAMIC mode. Sadly, any time I interact with the plugin, the follow error appears in my bot's console:

The relevant parts from the script that starts my bot are:

# Alias
export HUBOT_GROUP_ALIAS='DYNAMIC'
export HUBOT_GROUP_ALIAS_NAME_PROP="mention_name"

Here is a sample interaction with Andrew, the hubot.

[1:50pm] MatM: @andrew who has it role?
[1:50 PM] Andrew: @MatM The following people have the 'it' role: NetworkGuy, MatM
[1:50 PM] MatM: @it hey

I'm not sure if I've simply misunderstood the setup instructions for dynamic with hubot-group-alias or if I've hit a bug. Please let me know what other information you need from me and I'll provide it ASAP.

I just pushed a fix and released 2.2.0 on npm. Try that.

To be honest, I'm not exactly sure why things are working for me in my test setup because I feel like this should have never been working. I'll close this issue after I hear that things are working.

[StubbsPKS]

Using 2.2.1 and still having this issue.

[cycomachead]

Can you share the stack trace?

Sorry I think I noticed this error, but I want to be sure it's the right one.

[StubbsPKS]

Can you share the stack trace?

Whoops, not sure how I missed your reply sorry about the delay.

Sorry for the delay! ☹️ I got a bit swamped with work and life, but I just pushed 2.2.2 to npm, which should hopefully fix this case.
