Hi Scott.
If you or your framework uses REQUEST_URI you don't need
request rewrite feature. Using REQUEST_URI and request
rewrite feature are two oposite solutions for the same problem.
To mimic nginx's try_files do something like this:
location match "/hello/.*" {
....
root "/index.php"
....
}
It is not obvious from man page but file can act as document
root :) Then in that file, index.php in this case, you can route
requests by parsing $_SERVER['REQUEST_URI'] what your
framework probably does.
