Adding attachments to datalists via javascript

Hi

I have created a javascript that I will be using to create a document register for me for a specific site. The idea is to run the script and it then populates a datalist with information about the documents in a folder in the library. So far the script works well  but I would also like to add the documents that I query in the datalist as an attachment. I have no idea how to do this using javascript (manual method is obviously very simple). I have tried various methods but with no results. Could anyone assist me with this.

This is my script with my last attempt to set the attachement
var displayPaths = document.displayPath.split("/");
var CurrentSiteName = displayPaths[3];

var query = "+PATH:\"/app:company_home"
+"/st:"+search.ISO9075Encode("sites")
+"/cm:"+search.ISO9075Encode(CurrentSiteName)
+"/cm:"+search.ISO9075Encode("documentLibrary")
+"/cm:"+search.ISO9075Encode("03 Packages")
+"/cm:"+search.ISO9075Encode("03 PIP")
+"/cm:"+search.ISO9075Encode("PP002")
+"/cm:"+search.ISO9075Encode("DO")+"//*\"";
var docs = search.luceneSearch(query);

for (var i=0; i<docs.length; i++)
   {
    if (docs[i].isContainer == false)
       {
        var documentPath = docs[i].displayPath.split("/");
        var documentLocation = "";
        var associations = docs[i].nodeRef;

        for (var j=0; j<documentPath.length; j++)
            {
             documentLocation += documentPath[j] +"/";
            }
       
        documentLocation += docs[i].name;

        var props = new Array(3);       
        props["docl:docNo"] = docs[i].name;
        props["docl:version"] = docs[i].properties["cm:versionLabel"];
        props["docl:document"] = docs[i].createAssociation( associations,"docl:document");

        var docName = "DocList_" + i;
        var doclist = space.createNode(docName, "docl:documentList",props);
        //doclist.createAssociation( associations,"docl:document");
       }
   }

This is my data model of the datalist (very simple for now)
