map port number in url with nginx

The Problem

I would like to map a port number to the url of a site over a large range of ports.

That is if I have the following:

mysite:30123 would become something like mysite/30123

For one case I can do this using nginx. I would like to do this for a large number of ports / a dynamic number of ports.

Some Context

I am using Docker Swarm to launch services, each time a service is launched it will be exposed to a random port in a range of ports, can I do this wthout writing a location for each port number?

I know this is an old question, but this solution can help someone.

Nginx configurations:

map $request_uri $port {        
        ~^/your_path/(.*)$ $1;
        default '';
}

location /your_path {
            proxy_pass http://127.0.0.1:$port;
        }
