Here's my solution with nginx (role:
https://github.com/ginas/ginas/tree/master/playbooks/roles/nginx).

My websites are defined as hashes in inventory variables, like this:

inventory_nginx_site1:
  default: False
  name: 'subdomain.{{ ansible_domain }}'
  root: '/path/to/website'

inventory_nginx_site2:
  default: False
  name: 'othersite.(( ansible_domain }}'
  root: '/other/site'

And my nginx role operates on lists of hashes, so in inventory I can do
this:

nginx_servers:
  - '{{ nginx_server_default }}'
  - '{{ inventory_nginx_site1 }}'
  - '{{ inventory_nginx_site2 }}'

This way I can use default server defined by a role for given host, and add
additional websites as subdomains of that host (or I could replace default
website entirely, of I want to, either by omitting or rewriting
'nginx_server_default' hash (it is defined in nginx/defaults/main.yml). I
can also define 'nginx_servers' multiple times, for example in other roles
vars/ directory, and make nginx manage their websites (I do that with
phpMyAdmin, GitLab, ownCloud and others - you can look in that roles for
example usage).
