db2-node¶

@gurungabit/db2-node is a zero-dependency DB2 driver for Node.js, built in pure Rust. It speaks the IBM DRDA wire protocol directly, so there is no IBM CLI, ODBC, libdb2, or OpenSSL runtime dependency to install.

Why db2-node?¶

Zero native dependencies
Pure Rust DRDA implementation
First-class Node.js bindings via napi-rs
Built-in pooling, transactions, prepared statements, and TLS
Searchable docs with section navigation and page outlines

Quick Example¶

import { Client } from '@gurungabit/db2-node';

const client = new Client({
  host: 'localhost',
  port: 50000,
  database: 'MYDB',
  user: 'db2inst1',
  password: 'password',
});

await client.connect();

const result = await client.query(
  'SELECT * FROM employees WHERE dept = ?',
  ['SALES']
);
console.log(result.rows);
// [{ ID: 1, NAME: 'Alice', DEPT: 'SALES' }, ...]

await client.close();
