## Class: Dock
|
||
|
||
> Control your app in the macOS dock
|
||
|
||
Process: [Main](../glossary.md#main-process)
|
||
|
||
The following example shows how to bounce your icon on the dock.
|
||
|
||
```javascript
|
||
const { app } = require('electron')
|
||
app.dock.bounce()
|
||
```
|
||
|
||
### Instance Methods
|
||
|
||
#### `dock.bounce([type])` _macOS_
|
||
|
||
* `type` String (optional) - Can be `critical` or `informational`. The default is
|
||
`informational`
|
||
|
||
Returns `Integer` - an ID representing the request.
|
||
|
||
When `critical` is passed, the dock icon will bounce until either the
|
||
application becomes active or the request is canceled.
|
||
|
||
When `informational` is passed, the dock icon will bounce for one second.
|
||
However, the request remains active until either the application becomes active
|
||
or the request is canceled.

**Nota Bene:** This method can only be used while the app is not focused; when the app is focused it will return -1.
