Use regexp remembered string? #109

Closed katyapavlenko closed 4 years ago

katyapavlenko commented 4 years ago

I tried to use something like

replace({
    files: __dirname + '/**/*.ts',
    from: new RegExp(`` + oldFileName + `(['"])`, 'gi'),
    to: oldFileName + $1
  })

but it results not using regexp memory, and $1 is inserted as a string. Is there a way to use regexp remember features?
