vim: select inside dots

Question

I can\'t find a solution (here and on the web) for simply selecting/inserting/deleting stuff surrounded by dots (a common case in development) :

Maybe this is not what you're looking for, but I used the standard search functionality and typed in

/\..*\.

and it selected the .some-property-with-hyphens. value in your example above.
