Regex Replace on Save

Automatically run RegExp replace text before saving a file.

Derivative of https://gitlab.com/ruthner97/vscode-regex-replace-on-save as we couldn't get it working. This has been extended with more options, and our motivation was migrating liquibase changeset's to the latest version.

Added: - runOnLoad -> runs the rule on load of the file, vs only on save - mode: the regex mode string - logging to console as it runs, so you can see if it works

Options

• File Extension to apply replace rules to
• Find rule (regExp)
• Replace rule

Example Configuration (settings.json):

  {
    ...

        "groovy": {
            "String column type to STRING": {
