Переменная перемещение к литеральной нотации regrex javascript
// If you want to get ALL occurrences (g), be case insensitive (i), and use boundaries so that it isn't a word within another word (\\b):
re = new RegExp(`\\b${replaceThis}\\b`, 'gi');
// example:
let inputString = "I'm John, or johnny, but I prefer john.";
let replaceThis = "John";
let re = new RegExp(`\\b${replaceThis}\\b`, 'gi');
console.log(inputString.replace(re, "Jack")); // I'm Jack, or johnny, but I prefer Jack.
