VS Code regex replace

Question

I want to do a global find of all instances of

TestBed.get(*)

and replace with

TestBed.inject<*>(*)

I can't seem to figure out the regex I need to just match what is between the brackets

I have tried TestBed.get(.*) and replace with TestBed.inject<1ドル>(1ドル) but the ends up with an extra set of brackets

• Sнаđошƒаӽ: Try TestBed.get\((.*)\)

Answer 1

You have to escape the literal ( and )

TestBed.get\(([^)]*)\)

• zr0gravity7: For reference, the [^)] component ensures that the closing parentheses is not captured as part of the greedy capture group with *.

Answer 2

In TestBed.get(.*) the brackets are considered for making the groups. So you need to escape those. Try finding this instead:

TestBed.get(\(.*)\)

Also instead of a wild card pattern, you may want to use more precise patterns to match the contents inside the brackets.
