As per comment, you need to install mongodb-client-encryption module. This is a Node.JS wrapper for libmongocrypt. 

npm install mongodb-client-encryption

If you're seeing an error message related to this module, i.e.:

TypeError: encryption.createDataKey is not a function

Check the module import line, it should be: 

const mongodb = require('mongodb');
const { ClientEncryption } = require('mongodb-client-encryption');
const { MongoClient } = require('mongodb');
