I was trying the same a couple weeks ago but was unsuccessful in getting
connected via ibm_db as well. Got caught up in other work since and
haven't been able to get back to it.

I'd like to be able to create a python3 script that runs locally on an
IBMi, reads a DB2 table and writes an .xlsx spreadsheet to the IFS.

I've got python3 installed via 5733-OPS option 2, and used pip3 to set up
ibm_db and xlsxwriter.

Can anyone point me to a decent example that connects to the local IBMi DB2
using ibm_db_dbi, and iterates over the result set? Looking for help
mapping the connect method parameters.

John Yueng provided a nice example for iSeriesPython on his blog, but that
uses db2 rather than ibm_db
