Find and Insert rather Replace

MrKeiKun

This is my original code. What I am trying to do is insert another set of codes from this:

{
	id: 100
},
{
	info: 1000
},
{
	info: 1000
}

In order to make the codes like this

{
	id: 100
	info: {
		cute: true
	}
},
{
	id: 1000
	info: {
		cute: true
	}
},
{
	id: 10000
	info: {
		cute: true
	}
}

I used this which works fine when searching

But I want to replace/insert the codes I want to it, it fails and this is the end result

my regex might be wrong and garbage but it seems to work, the only proble mis that it replaces the regex from the search process. Is there way to avoid this?

You can use ${0} in your replace string to insert the contents of what was matched by the find string.
I think that is what you are asking for.

Another technique is to use \K at the end of your find string.
In that usage you then do not use ${0} in the replace.
Your replacement string will be inserted at the end of the text your find string matches.
I mention this usage because that seems to be what you are needing.

However, if you ever have a situation where you want your find string text to be in the middle of a replacement, then the ${0} usage is the solution.
