Regex to replace email address domains? -


i need regex obfuscate emails in database dump file have. i'd replace domains set domain @fake.com don't risk sending out emails real people during development. emails have unique match database constraints, want replace domain , keep usernames.

i current have regex finding emails

\b[a-z0-9._%-]+@[a-z0-9.-]+\.[a-z]{2,4}\b

how convert search regex regex can use in find , replace operation in either sublime text or sed or vim?

edit:

just note, realized replace strings found @[a-z0-9.-]+\.[a-z]{2,4}\b in case, academically still interested in how treat each section of email regex token , replace username / domain independently.

sublimetext

sublimetext uses boost syntax, supports quite large subset of features in perl regex. task, don't need advanced constructs.

below 2 possible approaches:

  1. if can assume @ doesn't appear in other context (which quite fair assumption normal text), can search domain part @[a-z0-9.-]+\.[a-z]{2,4}\b , replace it.

  2. if use capturing groups (pattern) , backreference in replacement string.

    find what

    \b([a-z0-9._%-]+)@[a-z0-9.-]+\.[a-z]{2,4}\b

    ([a-z0-9._%-]+) first (and only) capturing group in regex.

    replace with

    $1@fake.com

    $1 refers text captured first capturing group.

note both methods above, need turn off case-sensitivity (indicated 2nd button on lower left corner), unless want remove emails written in caps.

Why does Ruby on Rails generate add a blank line to the end of a file? -

running rails generate controller foo home results in: class foocontroller < application controller def home end end (there's nothing on line in actual file, blank line) is there purpose blank line? it's common use newline indicate end of line, last line. many editors (like vi, use) add in newline silently. consensus text files (especially in unix world) should end in newline, , there have been problems historically if wasn't present. why should text files end newline? the tool used count lines in file "wc" counts newlines in file, without trailing newline show 3 instead of 4. it improves readability of templates used in generator. consider: https://github.com/rails/rails/blob/master/railties/lib/rails/generators/rails/controller/templates/controller.rb to remove trailing newline, template have last line of: end<% end -%> instead of: end <% end -%> that seems less readable me. the discussion below refers ...
