Gulp-replace not working latest version

// Create a scss theme file
gulp.task('theme-scss', function() {

  return gulp.src(['./retailer-theme.json']).on('error', gutil.log)
    .pipe(replace('/.*/m', 'hello')).on('error', gutil.log)
    //.pipe(jsonSass({prefix: '$theme: '})).on('error', gutil.log)
    /*.pipe(rename({
      dirname: './',
      basename: 'retailer',
      suffix: '-theme',
      extname: '.scss'
    })).on('error', gutil.log)*/
    .pipe(gulp.dest(APP_DIR + '/scss/variables/')).on('error', gutil.log)
})

Trying the replace everything in the file with the word hello.enter code here The text in retailer-theme.json is text

.pipe(replace('text', 'hello')).on('error', gutil.log)

The above line works as expected

Actually, if you just removed the quotes from your original regexp 

.pipe(replace('/.*/m', 'hello')).on('error', gutil.log)

to 

.pipe(replace(/.*/m, 'hello')).on('error', gutil.log)

I bet it works. With the quotes it just found no match.

.pipe(replace(new RegExp('.*'), 'hello')).on('error', gutil.log)

So I had to create a regexp object, would of been nice if they had this in the docs
