Originally forked from [BWICompanies](https://github.com/BWICompanies/db2-driver). Modification done by me is that we can't use the IBM DB2 driver but only odbc, by specifying the `use_ibm_driver=true` connection string will be created for the IBM DB2 driver instead for the ODBC like previous authors intended. I've done this only because I cant use the [cooperl22/laravel-db2](https://github.com/cooperl22/laravel-db2). And I want to use the regular IBM DB2 driver with laravel 10. Since this package works with Laravel 10 I forked the repo and made small modification in the connection string.
