How can I take persistent permissions in electron app?

Question

I am creating an electron app where I need to scan and update files which need root permission. I know I can run such commands using sudo.exec() in that way:

su

You need to run the applicaton with administrator privilege. If you are using electron builder to build the app, use the requestedExecutionLevel value as "requireAdministrator"
