How to trigger AFrame animation to specific location from javascript?

For example, how would you implement this: A cube is clicked on and based on a previously defined JS variable (call it point "p"), another cube moves (animates) to that point "p"? In other words, is there a way to define and activate AFrame animations on the fly? Thanks a lot.

Solution

You can add a <a-animation> element below your target box. Animation-A-Frame

<script src="https://cdnjs.cloudflare.com/ajax/libs/aframe/0.3.2/aframe.min.js"></script>
<!DOCTYPE html>  
<html>  
<head>
<title>move animation</title>
<script>
AFRAME.registerComponent("move",{
schema : {
  target : { type : "selector"},
  position : {type : "string"}
},
init : function(){
	this.el.addEventListener("click",function(){
            var animation = document.createElement("a-animation");
            animation.setAttribute("attribute","position");
            animation.setAttribute("to",this.data.position);
            animation.setAttribute("dur","1000");
            animation.setAttribute("repeat","0");
            this.data.target.appendChild(animation);
	}.bind(this));
}

});
  </script>
