If you want to interfere with Confluence from Python, this is what you are looking for.
While this library is quite new it has the basic functionality for retrieving and storing pages in Confluence 3.x-5.x, hiding most API differences between these versions.
That's open source and I will welcome any contributions, including bug reports ;)
You should read the documentation from pythonhosted.org/confluence/ or just look inside the source code as you may find some new features that are not yet documented.
from confluence import Confluence
conf = Confluence(profile='confluence')
conf.getPage("page","space")
conf.storePageContent("page","space","hello world!")Also create a config.ini file like this and put it in current directory, user home directory or PYTHONPATH.
