Loop the Hosts in Ansible Playbook with_item or with any condition

[aditya varma]

Want to pass a json variables containing couple of ansible hosts to a ansible-playbook so the variables can be looped in for hosts one by one.similar to

---

 - hosts: "{{ item.sample.server }}"

   sudo: true

   tasks:

   - name: print

     debug: msg= "{{ item.sample.jar }} is being deployed to {{ item.sample.server }}" 

   - {include: /home/ubuntu/deployment/deployment.yml, "{{item}}" : ["{{ item.sample.jar }}", "{{ item.sample.server }}"]}

   with_items: "{{ item }}"

by passing variable by 

   ansible-playbook play.yml --extra-vars 'item=[{"sample":{"server":"server1"}},{"sample":{"server":"server2"}}]'

I think I do not understand clearly what you really want, but:
Can't you just use "hosts" for the hosts you want to loop over, like it
is intendet to and - if the action should run on another server - use
the delegate_to option?
