[kronolith] Insert event into kronolith_events using 3rd party app

[JP Edwards]

I would like to use a 3rd party php application built using phprunner to insert a kronolith event in the kronolith_events table.  This is because I want to use kronolith as the calendar for the phprunner application.

Looking at the structure of kronolith_events table I see it has 4 not null fields:
events_id, event_uid, calendar_id and event_creator_id.  The last two (calendar_id and event_creator_id) I know I can manage to populate but how can I generate correct values for events_id and event_uid.

Ideally I would like to call a function that would create or 'reserve' an empty kronolith event and pass me back the event_id.  I could then populate the other fields.

I am not advanced in php object programming and at the moment find the kronolith scripts challenging so thanks in advance for any advice given.

Regards,
JP.
