It is quite simple to add events dynamically through Javascript.
Create a new event, add it to the eventSource for the band(s) and update the
timeline:
var evt = new Timeline.DefaultEventSource.Event ({
start: new Date("May 03 2013 00:00:00 GMT-0600"),
instant : true,
text : "An event",
description : "A description",
});
tl.getBand(0).getEventSource().add(evt);
tl.paint();
If you have already created an array of events, you can use the addMany method
of the event source. You can add many events before repainting the timeline to
improve performance.
var myEvents = [];
myEvents.push(evt);
myEvents.push(evt2); // etc.
tl.getBand(0).getEventSource().addMany(myEvents);
