Maybe something like this... (config below assumes your header is "My-Header" and must have an integer value to be recognized)
server { # ...
set $path_prefix ''; if ($http_my_header ~ (\d+)) { set $path_prefix /$1; }
location / { # proxy_set_header calls here proxy_pass s1_server$path_prefix; } }
I know "if" is evil, but I don't know that there's any other way to accomplish a conditional like this.

Let assume that server called n1 is reverse proxy (SSL) for http server s1.
Client c1 connects to n1 using given URL https://n1/index.html and in the end
reads web page from /var/www/index.html on s1. What I want to do is to change
URL sent to s1 depending on some header value sent by client. Namely, c1
connects to n1 with URL https://n1/index.html and with header "some_header=123"
then n1 checks in some configuration file what to do if some_header has the
value of 123 and changes the URL http://s1/123/index.html (as an example). I
did the same thing on Apache using *.map files and RewriteRule how I can do the
same thing in nginx ?
