Replace this:

location /api/v1/ {
    try_files $uri $uri/ /apiv1.php?$args;
}

With the following inside your server block:

rewrite ^/api/v1/([^/]+)/([^/]+)/?$ /apiv1.php?class=$1&method=$2? last;

Create a php file called apiv1.php and place in the root directory of your web server with the following lines of code:

';
echo $method;

Test by visiting the following link in your browser:
