Prompt for admin privileges #12

I am working on a project for MacOS (not on GitHub) but can't figure out how to prompt for admin privileges.

Is there a one-liner to prompt for these privileges?

sudo

You can’t elevate an existing process without kext, but you can relaunch your own process with extended privileges via AuthorizationExecuteWithPrivileges, but it’s deprecated and Apple advices for PrivilegedHelper instead. This project is open-source anyway, so I don’t really get your question.
