  • $text - If undef or '': Read '$theWebName.$theTopicName' to check permissions
  • $meta - If undef, but $text is defined, then metadata will be parsed from $text. If defined, then metadata embedded in $text will be ignored. Always ignored if $text is undefined. Settings in $meta override * Set settings in plain text.
  • $topic - Topic name to check, e.g. 'SomeTopic' *undef to check web perms only)
  • $web - Web, e.g. 'Know'
If the check fails, the reason can be recoveered using getReason.
