### Avoid name collisions

We are importing the submodule `items` directly, instead of importing just its variable `router`.

This is because we also have another variable named `router` in the submodule `users`.

If we had imported one after the other, like:

```Python

!!! info
    Sie können auch:

    * `response_model_exclude_defaults=True`
    * `response_model_exclude_none=True`

#### Possibly `None`

You can declare that a value could have a type, like `str`, but that it could also be `None`.

In Python 3.6 and above (including Python 3.10) you can declare it by importing and using `Optional` from the `typing` module.

```Python hl_lines="1  4"
{!../../../docs_src/python_types/tutorial009.py!}
```

But once we create an instance of the `SessionLocal` class, this instance will be the actual database session.

We name it `SessionLocal` to distinguish it from the `Session` we are importing from SQLAlchemy.

We will use `Session` (the one imported from SQLAlchemy) later.

To create the `SessionLocal` class, use the function `sessionmaker`:

```Python hl_lines="11"
