Is there documentation on importing via an API? It'd be nice to release
content using a bash script similar to wget for backups.

Hi guys,

Just a few other tracks:
  * you could use the import/export mechanisms. They're easily useable
through command line tools like wget.
  * in the same vein, you could create a custom Page implementation
(that creates your content with code similar to the one below), and use
it through wget if you need command line.
  * there are plans for remoting (some of) the Magnolia API. See jira or
the dev list (or ping Oliver ;)) and see if it would fit your needs

Cheers
