For Uploading a content into repository, you may want to use the existing out-of-the-box webscript available for file upload.

You can get more details of it from : http://wiki.alfresco.com/wiki/Web_Scripts_Examples#File_Upload. Please check it with the alfresco version you are using. You may want to customize it as per your requirement.

For creating new spaces in repository, you can write your own java-backed webscript and using create() method of fileFolderService, can create the new spaces in the repository. This would be pretty simple.

Hope this helps.

Thanks,

Just to add on to above, if you want to write your own webscript to create content in space, you may refer to AddContentDialog.java class - saveContent() method. It will give you a clear idea.

Hope this helps.

Thanks,
