## Class: TouchBar
> Create TouchBar layouts for native macOS applications
Process: [Main](../tutorial/quick-start.md#main-process)
### `new TouchBar(options)` _Experimental_
* `options` Object
* `items` ([TouchBarButton](touch-bar-button.md) | [TouchBarColorPicker](touch-bar-color-picker.md) | [TouchBarGroup](touch-bar-group.md) | [TouchBarLabel](touch-bar-label.md) | [TouchBarPopover](touch-bar-popover.md) | [TouchBarScrubber](touch-bar-scrubber.md) | [TouchBarSegmentedControl](touch-bar-segmented-control.md) | [TouchBarSlider](touch-bar-slider.md) | [TouchBarSpacer](touch-bar-spacer.md))[]
* `escapeItem` ([TouchBarButton](touch-bar-button.md) | [TouchBarColorPicker](touch-bar-color-picker.md) | [TouchBarGroup](touch-bar-group.md) | [TouchBarLabel](touch-bar-label.md) | [TouchBarPopover](touch-bar-popover.md) | [TouchBarScrubber](touch-bar-scrubber.md) | [TouchBarSegmentedControl](touch-bar-segmented-control.md) | [TouchBarSlider](touch-bar-slider.md) | [TouchBarSpacer](touch-bar-spacer.md)) (optional)
Creates a new touch bar with the specified items. Use
`BrowserWindow.setTouchBar` to add the `TouchBar` to a window.
**Note:** The TouchBar API is currently experimental and may change or be
removed in future Electron releases.
**Tip:** If you don't have a MacBook with Touch Bar, you can use
[Touch Bar Simulator](https://github.com/sindresorhus/touch-bar-simulator)
to test Touch Bar usage in your app.
### Instance Properties
The following properties are available on instances of `TouchBar`:
#### `touchBar.escapeItem`
The `TouchBarButton` that will replace the "esc" button on the touch bar when set.
Setting to `null` restores the default "esc" button. Changing this value
immediately updates the escape item in the touch bar.
## Examples
Below is an example of a simple slot machine touch bar game with a button
and some labels.
```javascript
const {app, BrowserWindow, TouchBar} = require('electron')
const {TouchBarLabel, TouchBarButton, TouchBarSpacer} = TouchBar
let spinning = false
// Reel labels
const reel1 = new TouchBarLabel()
const reel2 = new TouchBarLabel()
const reel3 = new TouchBarLabel()
// Spin result label
const result = new TouchBarLabel()
// Spin button
const spin = new TouchBarButton({
label: '🎰 Spin',
backgroundColor: '#7851A9',
click: () => {
// Ignore clicks if already spinning
if (spinning) {
return
}
spinning = true
result.label = ''
let timeout = 10
const spinLength = 4 * 1000 // 4 seconds
const startTime = Date.now()
const spinReels = () => {
updateReels()
if ((Date.now() - startTime) >= spinLength) {
finishSpin()
} else {
// Slow down a bit on each spin
timeout *= 1.1
setTimeout(spinReels, timeout)
}
}
spinReels()
}
})
const getRandomValue = () => {
const values = ['🍒', '💎', '7⃣', '🍊', '🔔', '⭐', '🍇', '🍀']
return values[Math.floor(Math.random() * values.length)]
}
const updateReels = () => {
reel1.label = getRandomValue()
reel2.label = getRandomValue()
reel3.label = getRandomValue()
}
const finishSpin = () => {
const uniqueValues = new Set([reel1.label, reel2.label, reel3.label]).size
if (uniqueValues === 1) {
// All 3 values are the same
result.label = '💰 Jackpot!'
result.textColor = '#FDFF00'
} else if (uniqueValues === 2) {
// 2 values are the same
result.label = '😍 Winner!'
result.textColor = '#FDFF00'
} else {
// No values are the same
result.label = '🙁 Spin Again'
result.textColor = null
}
spinning = false
}
const touchBar = new TouchBar([
spin,
new TouchBarSpacer({size: 'large'}),
reel1,
new TouchBarSpacer({size: 'small'}),
reel2,
new TouchBarSpacer({size: 'small'}),
reel3,
new TouchBarSpacer({size: 'large'}),
result
])
let window
app.once('ready', () => {
window = new BrowserWindow({
frame: false,
titleBarStyle: 'hiddenInset',
width: 200,
height: 200,
backgroundColor: '#000'
})
window.loadURL('about:blank')
window.setTouchBar(touchBar)
})
```
### Running the above example
To run the example above, you'll need to (assuming you've got a terminal open in the dirtectory you want to run the example):
1. Save the above file to your computer as `touchbar.js`
2. Install Electron via `npm install electron`
3. Run the example inside Electron: `./node_modules/.bin/electron touchbar.js`
You should then see a new Electron window and the app running in your touch bar (or touch bar emulator).
