# CodeX Editor API
Blocks have access to the public methods provided by CodeX Editor API Module. Plugin and Tune Developers
can use Editor API as they want.
## Api object description
Common API interface.
```js
export interface IAPI {
blocks: IBlocksAPI;
caret: ICaretAPI;
sanitizer: ISanitizerAPI;
toolbar: IToolbarAPI;
// ...
}
```
#### IBlocksAPI
Methods that working with Blocks
`swap(fromIndex, toIndex)` - swaps two Blocks by their positions
`delete(blockIndex?: Number)` - deletes Block with passed index
`getCurrentBlockIndex()` - current Block index
`getBlockByIndex(index: Number)` - returns Block with passed index
`getBlocksCount()` - returns Blocks count
`stretchBlock(index: number, status: boolean)` - make Block stretched
`insertNewBlock()` - insert new Block after working place
#### ISanitizerAPI
`clean(taintString, config)` - method uses HTMLJanitor to clean taint string.
CodeX Editor provides basic config without attributes, but you can inherit by passing your own config.
If Tool enables inline-tools, we get it's sanitizing rules and merge with your passed custom rules.
Usage:
```js
let taintString = '<div><p style="font-size: 5em;"><b></b>BlockWithText<a onclick="void(0)"></div>'
let customConfig = {
b: true,
p: {
style: true,
},
}
this.api.sanitizer.clean(taintString, customConfig);
```
### IToolbarAPI
Methods that working with Toolbar
`open()` - opens toolbar
`close()` - closes toolbar, toolbox and blockSettings if they are opened
### IEventsAPI
Methods that allows to subscribe on CodeX Editor events
`on(eventName: string, callback: Function)` - subscribe callback on event
`off(eventName: string, callback: Function)` - unsubscribe callback from event
`emit(eventName: string, data: object)` - fires all subscribed callbacks with passed data
### IListenerAPI
Methods that allows to work with DOM listener. Useful when you forgot to remove listener. Module collects all listeners and destroys automatically
`on(element: HTMLElement, eventType: string, handler: Function, useCapture?: boolean)` - add event listener to HTML element
`off(element: HTMLElement, eventType: string, handler: Function)` - remove event handler from HTML element
### NotifierAPI
If you need to show any messages for success or failure events you can use notifications module.
Call on target Editor:
```javascript
let editor = new CodexEditor({
onReady: () => {
editor.notifier.show({
message: 'Editor is ready!'
});
},
});
```
In Tool's class:
```javascript
this.api.notifier.show({
message: 'Cannot upload image. Wrong mime-type.',
style: 'error',
});
```

Check out [`codex-notifier` package page](https://github.com/codex-team/js-notifier) on GitHub to find docs, params and examples.
### Destroy API
If there are necessity to remove CodeX Editor instance from the page you can use `destroy()` method.
It makes following steps:
1. Clear the holder element by setting it\`s innerHTML to empty string
2. Remove all event listeners related to CodeX Editor
3. Delete all properties from instance object and set it\`s prototype to `null`
After executing the `destroy` method, editor inctance becomes an empty object. This way you will free occupied JS Heap on your page.
