How to get query string parameters with Python Django?

For instance, we write
def get_item(request):
id = int(request.GET.get('id'))
type = request.GET.get('type', 'default')
in the get_item view function to get the id query parameter with
id = int(request.GET.get('id'))
And we get the type query parameter with
type = request.GET.get('type', 'default')
The type query parameter has default value 'default' if it doesn’t exist.
