When this module was written back in May 2015 we were using 1.9.x. Being lazy I added to param the objects that the other functions would need. What I have noticed is in 2.0 exit_json is trying to jsonify those complex objects and failing.
Playbook
```yaml
- name: Add a temporary vSwitch
local_action:
module: vmware_vswitch
hostname: "{{ inventory_hostname }}"
username: "{{ esxi_username }}"
password: "{{ site_passwd }}"
switch_name: temp_vswitch
nic_name: "{{ vss_vmnic }}"
mtu: 1500
```
Module Testing
```bash

ansible-modules-extras
This repo contains a subset of ansible-modules with slightly lower use or priority than "core" modules.
All new modules should be submitted here, and have a chance to be promoted to core over time.
Reporting bugs
Take care to submit tickets to the appropriate repo where modules are contained. The repo is mentioned at the bottom of module documentation page at docs.ansible.com.
Testing modules
Ansible module development guide contains the latest info about that.
License
As with Ansible, modules distributed with Ansible are GPLv3 licensed. User generated modules not part of this project can be of any license.
Installation
There should be no need to install this repo separately as it should be included in any Ansible install using the official documented methods.
