how to exclude certain views with laravel view composer

How can I make sure that I load data via view composer for select views and only exclude a few, two views to be specific? Can i use a regex instead of '*'? 

public function boot()
{
    view()->composer(
        '*',
        'App\Http\ViewComposers\ProfileComposer'
    );
}

There are just two views i'd like to avoid, they extend the same blade used by others, not sure declaring all the 99 others would be the best - if i can just define the ones to be left out that'd be great.

Perhaps it is not the best way for doing this but it can do like this

In your services provider register your view composer

public function boot()
{
    view()->composer(
        '*',
        'App\Http\ViewComposers\ProfileComposer'
    );
}

In Your ProfileComposer compose method View class repository is type hinted. Use it to get the name of the current name of the view and make a condition for excluded view name.

class ProfileComposer
{


    public function __construct()
    {
        // Dependencies automatically resolved by service container...
    }

    /**
     * Bind data to the view.
     *
     * @param  View  $view
     * @return void
     */
    public function compose(View $view)
    {
        $excludedViews = ['firstView','SecondView'];

        //Check if current view is not in excludedViews array
        if(!in_array($view->getName() , $excludedViews))
        {
             $view->with('dataName', $this->data);
        }
    }
}
