Hello, I want to control awesome by remote, now I tried to change tag with:

  echo 'awful.tag.viewnext' | awesome-client

and I got:

  string "[string "awful.tag.viewnext"]:1: '=' expected near '<eof>'"

By internet I found (not useful for me but useful for learn how awesome work):

  echo 'local awful = require("awful") ; return awful.tag.viewonly(tags[2][1])' 
| awesome-client

and I got:

  attempt to index field '?' (a nil value)

others test:
  echo 'return awful.tag.viewonly(tags[2][1])' | awesome-client
  attempt to index global 'awful' (a nil value)

  echo 'awful.tag.viewonly(tags[2][1])' | awesome-client
  attempt to index global 'awful' (a nil value)

I have this:
