Helper scripts for Ampache

Quick start example

# just print the auth token
lua ampache-handshake-print.lua -a http://192.168.61.10 youruser yourpassword

# print the playlists response using the lua script to fetch the token in one line
curl "http://192.168.61.10/public/server/json.server.php?action=playlists&limit=100&filter=&exact=0&offset=0&hide_search=1&show_dupes=1&auth=$(lua ampache-handshake-print.lua -a http://192.168.61.10 youruser yourpassword)"

# save in a variable and reuse for multiple calls
#BASH
auth=$(lua ampache-handshake-print.lua -a http://192.168.61.10 youruser yourpassword)
#FISH
set auth $(lua ampache-handshake-print.lua -a http://192.168.61.10 youruser yourpassword)
curl "http://192.168.61.10/public/server/json.server.php?action=playlists&limit=100&filter=&exact=0&offset=0&hide_search=1&show_dupes=1&auth=$auth"
