associating it with the `sandbox` object is what this document refers to as
"contextifying" the `sandbox`.

## vm module and Proxy object

Leveraging a `Proxy` object as the sandbox of a VM context could result in a
very powerful runtime environment that intercepts all accesses to the global
object. However, there are some restrictions in the JavaScript engine that one
needs to be aware of to prevent unexpected results. In particular, providing a
`Proxy` object with a `get` handler could disallow any access to the original
global properties of the new VM context, as the `get` hook does not distinguish
between the `undefined` value and "requested property is not present" –
the latter of which would ordinarily trigger a lookup on the context global
object.

Included below is a sample for how to work around this restriction. It
initializes the sandbox as a `Proxy` object without any hooks, only to add them
after the relevant properties have been saved.

```js
'use strict';
const { createContext, runInContext } = require('vm');

function createProxySandbox(handlers) {
// Create a VM context with a Proxy object with no hooks specified.
const sandbox = {};
const proxyHandlers = {};
const contextifiedProxy = createContext(new Proxy(sandbox, proxyHandlers));

// Save the initial globals onto our sandbox object.
const contextThis = runInContext('this', contextifiedProxy);
for (const prop of Reflect.ownKeys(contextThis)) {
const descriptor = Object.getOwnPropertyDescriptor(contextThis, prop);
Object.defineProperty(sandbox, prop, descriptor);
}

// Now that `sandbox` contains all the initial global properties, assign the
// provided handlers to the handlers we used to create the Proxy.
Object.assign(proxyHandlers, handlers);

// Return the created contextified Proxy object.
return contextifiedProxy;
}
```
