Is there a way to create a calendar event using javascript?

I have a folder rule to execute a javascript that I would like to create an event in the site's calendar.

I am using code that is similar to what I used to create datalist items and it seems to create the item but the item does not look right when I compare it to an item that I create through the UI

I use the childByNamePath() to get the site Calendar "siteCalendar". The item gets created but the primary path ends with something like this "cm:_x0037_3b5d28b-48ad-45e3-8f5c-a2c6eb0405df" rather than an ics name like "1594842338500-5440ics"

var myEvent = siteCalendar.createNode(null, "ia:calendarEvent")
myEvent.properties["ia:whereEvent"] = "Where event";
myEvent.properties["ia:descriptionEvent"] = "This is the description";

var fromDate = new Date();
var fromISODate = utils.toISO8601(fromDate);
myEvent.properties["ia:fromDate"] = fromISODate;

var toDate = new Date();
toDate.setHours(toDate.getHours() + 1);
var toISODate = utils.toISO8601(toDate);
myEvent.properties["ia:toDate"] = toISODate;

myEvent.properties["ia:whatEvent"] = "What event";


myEvent.save();
logger.warn("Created new calendar event: " + myEvent.nodeRef);

Used your code with small change and its working.

var node = companyhome.childByNamePath("Sites/demo/calendar"); 
var myEvent = node.createNode(new Date().getTime() + "-" + Math.round(Math.random()*10000) + ".ics", "ia:calendarEvent")
myEvent.properties["ia:whereEvent"] = "Where event";
myEvent.properties["ia:descriptionEvent"] = "This is the description";
myEvent.properties["ia:whatEvent"] = "What event";


var fromDate = new Date();
var fromISODate = utils.toISO8601(fromDate);
myEvent.properties["ia:fromDate"] = fromISODate;

var toDate = new Date();
toDate.setHours(toDate.getHours() + 3);
var toISODate = utils.toISO8601(toDate);
myEvent.properties["ia:toDate"] = toISODate;


myEvent.save();
logger.warn("Created new calendar event: " + myEvent.nodeRef);
