My use case is as follows: I would like to find all occurrences of something similar to this /name.action, but where the last part is not .action eg:
I have this:/\w+.\w*
to match two words separated by a dot, but I don't know how to add 'and do not match .action'.

Regex doesn't work in String.
$ means "Match the end of the string" (the position after the last character in the string). Both are called anchors and ensure that the entire string is matched instead of just a substring.
[] denotes a character class. () denotes a capturing group. [a-z0-9] -- One character that is in the range of a-z OR 0-9. (a-z0-9) -- Explicit capture of a-z0-9 .
Firstly, you need to escape your . character as that's taken as any character in Regex.
Secondly, you need to add in a Match if suffix is not present group - signified by the (?!) syntax.
You may also want to put a circumflex ^ to signify the start of a new line and change your * (any repetitions) to a + (one or more repititions).
^/\w+\.(?!action)\w+ is the finished Regex.

^\w+\.(?!action)\w*
