$ npm i node-mac-permissions

This native Node.js module allows you to manage an app's access to:

• Contacts
• Full Disk Access
• Calendar
• Photos

• type - The type of system component to which you are requesting access. Can be one of contacts, full-disk-access, photos, or calendar.

Returns String - Can be one of 'Not Determined', 'Denied', 'Authorized', or 'Restricted'.

Checks the authorization status of the application to access type on macOS.

Return Value Descriptions:

• 'Not Determined' - The user has not yet made a choice regarding whether the application may access type data.
• 'Not Authorized' - The application is not authorized to access type data. The user cannot change this application’s status, possibly due to active restrictions such as parental controls being in place.
• 'Denied' - The user explicitly denied access to type data for the application.
• 'Authorized' - The application is authorized to access type data.

Note: Access to contacts will always return a status of 'Authorized' prior to macOS 10.13 High Sierra, as access to contacts was unilaterally allowed until that version.
