Create playlists for video.js

I'm totally new to this. I have managed to make video.js work on my site but I need to create playlists with videos to choose from. Is there an easy way to do this?

Thanks

<script src="videojs-playlist-ui.min.js"></script>

//The HTML Code

    <video autoplay id="player" class="video-js vjs-fluid" controls>
        <source src="somevideo.mp4" type="video/mp4">
    </video>

    <div class="playlist-container  preview-player-dimensions vjs-fluid">

// Your script
<script>
    var player = videojs('player');

    player.playlistUi();

    player.playlist([{
        sources: [{
