Missing '}'

The config does not run in nginx and makes no sense?

I have installed nginx on a plain linux added the conf to 
/etc/nginx/conf.d/default.conf and run nginx -t

###
nginx -t
nginx: [emerg] the closing bracket in "host_finder" variable is missing in /etc/nginx/conf.d/default.conf:31
nginx: configuration file /etc/nginx/nginx.conf test failed
###

Please read again

http://nginx.org/en/docs/http/server_names.html
http://nginx.org/en/docs/njs_about.html
http://nginx.org/en/docs/http/ngx_http_js_module.html
https://www.nginx.com/blog/tag/nginscript/

Untested suggestion without the host_finder call.

##
server {
  server_name ~^(?<prefix>rwa|m2m|dwa)-(?<postfix>.*)$;

  location / {
    rewrite ^(/ws/v[1-9]/dias/[^+]*)\+([^+]*)$ https://$prefix/$1\%2B$2 redirect;
  }
}
