Thank you Daniele, for your help!! The test example you provided was
very helpful to get me started.
This entry in timeregex.properties works:
regex=([0-9]{8})(?:/rtma2p5.)(t[0-9]{2}z),format=yyyyMMdd't'HH'z',fullPath=true
Mosaic granules are in subdirectories as follows:
rtma2p5.20190731/rtma2p5.t00z.2dvaranl_ndfd.grb2_wexp
where time varies from 00 to 23 (for every hour)
It took a while to write a regex pattern. It took some time studying
regex rules.
I also tested the pattern on https://www.compilejava.net with this test:
===================
import java.util.regex.Matcher;
import java.util.regex.Pattern;
import java.util.regex.PatternSyntaxException;
public class TestPatternExtraction
{
public static void main(String[] args)
{
String expr="([0-9]{8})(?:/rtma2p5.)(t[0-9]{2}z)";
//String expr="(.*[0-9]{8}.*t[0-9]{2}z.*)";
String name=
"/wfas/data/rtma/rhm/rtma2p5.20190731/rtma2p5.t03z.2dvaranl_ndfd.grb2_wexp";
Pattern regex = Pattern.compile(expr);
Matcher regexMatcher = regex.matcher(name);
while (regexMatcher.find()) {
try{
for (int i = 1; i <= regexMatcher.groupCount(); i++) {
System.out.println("matched text: " + regexMatcher.group(i));
System.out.println("match start: " + regexMatcher.start(i));
System.out.println("match end: " + regexMatcher.end(i));
}
} catch (PatternSyntaxException ex) {
// Syntax error in the regular expression
}//end try
}//end while
}//end main
}
=======================
This list conversation was also helpful:

As well as firing up Eclipse and tracing through the code.
Kind regards,
Alex
