Description
In my project we are using flask framework and we are using mongoengine and marshmallow to define the model and schema files.
I was trying to implement automatic CSFLE for our project and tried to figure out if mongoengine does support the its implementation.
It seems like this feature is only supported in mongodb version 4.2+ and for pymongo driver version 3.10.0+, i checked the mongoengine changelogs as well to see if i can find some information.
Is there a mechanism using which we can enable automatic CSFLE using mongoengine or fla.sk_mongoengine.
