How can I execute this from Vimscript?

[hacker-DOM]

I'd like to do something like db but with nvim-spider and from Vimscript. For the love of me couldn't find a solution; I was expecting something like

exe "norm! c" | | lua require('spider').motion('e')

to work.

(The only thing that seems to work is the <cmd> thing that can only appear in mappings:

map <space> c<cmd>lua require('spider').motion('e')<CR>).

This works (vim)

call nvim_feedkeys("c\<cmd>lua require'spider'.motion('e')\<CR>", "n", v:true)

And so does this from lua (wrapping it in vim.cmd[[]]) (lua)

vim.cmd[[call nvim_feedkeys("c\<cmd>lua require'spider'.motion('e')\<CR>", "n", v:true)]]

Weirdly enough, I wasn't able to get either of these solutions to work :/ (lua)

vim.api.nvim_feedkeys([[c\<cmd>lua require"spider".motion("e")\<CR>]], "n", true)

(lua)

local keys = vim.api.nvim_replace_termcodes([[c\<cmd>lua require"spider".motion("e")\<CR>]], true, false, true)
vim.api.nvim_feedkeys(keys, "n", false)
