It provides DB2 Connection by extending the Illuminate Database component of the laravel framework. --- - [Installation](#installation) - [Configuration](#configuration) - [Usage](#usage) Installation ------------ [](#installation) Add laravel-db2 to your composer.json file: ``` "require": { "cooperl/laravel-db2": "^7.0" } ``` Use [composer](https://getcomposer.org) to install this package. ``` $ composer update ``` ### Configuration [](#configuration) There are two ways to configure laravel-db2. You can choose the most convenient way for you. You can put your DB2 credentials into `app/config/database.php` (option 1) file or use package config file which you can generate through command line by artisan (option 2). Please check appropriate specific DSN parameters for your connection. For instance here are the ODBC keywords for IBMi [https://www.ibm.com/support/knowledgecenter/fr/ssw\_ibm\_i\_74/rzaik/connectkeywords.htm](https://www.ibm.com/support/knowledgecenter/fr/ssw_ibm_i_74/rzaik/connectkeywords.htm) If you encounter issues with char fields containing characters outside the invariant character set (for example: "ü") please see : For PHP applications using the UTF8 locale the workaround to prevent the extra garbage data is to set the following connection string keyword: DEBUG = 65536 #### Option 1: Configure DB2 using `app/config/database.php` file [](#option-1-configure-db2-using-appconfigdatabasephp-file) Simply add this code at the end of your `app/config/database.php` file: ``` /* |-------------------------------------------------------------------------- | DB2 Databases |-------------------------------------------------------------------------- */ 'ibmi' => [ 'driver' => 'db2_ibmi_odbc', // or 'db2_ibmi_ibm' / 'db2_zos_odbc' / 'db2_expressc_odbc 'driverName' => '{IBM i Access ODBC Driver}', // or '{iSeries Access ODBC Driver}' / '{IBM i Access ODBC Driver 64-bit}' 'host' => 'server', 'username' => '', 'password' => '', 'database' => 'WRKRDBDIRE entry', 'prefix' => '', 'schema' => 'default schema', 'port' => 50000, 'date_format' => 'Y-m-d H:i:s', // or 'Y-m-d H:i:s.u' / 'Y-m-d-H.i.s.u'...
