Thanks Francis, that is an interesting approach (with a map). Will give it a
try. And good point on only allowing pre-defined patterns to be passed from

server_name www.example.com;
# root when path query arg is present
if ($arg_path) {
root /var/www/example/$arg_path;
}
# root when path query arg is not present (default)
if (!$arg_pat

Is it possible to set/modify location based on the query string arg from
request?
Here is the scenario:
Request: www.example.com/demo?path=abc
Docroot: /var/www/example/abc/
Request: www.example.com/demo?path=xyz
Docroot: /var/www/example/xyz/
