Then we can test that it is used.

## Reading a `.env` file

If you have many settings that possibly change a lot, maybe in different environments, it might be useful to put them on a file and then read them from it as if they were environment variables.

This practice is common enough that it has a name, these environment variables are commonly placed in a file `.env`, and the file is called a "dotenv".

	RegisterPrefix map[string]bool
	// RegisterNumber converts R(10) into arm.REG_R10.
	RegisterNumber func(string, int16) (int16, bool)
	// Instruction is a jump.
	IsJump func(word string) bool
}

// nilRegisterNumber is the register number function for architectures
// that do not accept the R(N) notation. It always returns failure.
func nilRegisterNumber(name string, n int16) (int16, bool) {
	return 0, false

    return response;
  }
}
```

A call to `chain.proceed(request)` is a critical part of each interceptor’s implementation. This simple-looking method is where all the HTTP work happens, producing a response to satisfy the request. If `chain.proceed(request)` is being called more than once previous response bodies must be closed.

/// tip

The app above is a minimal and simple example to demonstrate how to handle and broadcast messages to several WebSocket connections.

But keep in mind that, as everything is handled in memory, in a single list, it will only work while the process is running, and will only work with a single process.

```

In this case, the function parameter `q` will be optional, and will be `None` by default.

/// check

Also notice that **FastAPI** is smart enough to notice that the path parameter `item_id` is a path parameter and `q` is not, so, it's a query parameter.

## Query parameter type conversion

You can also declare `bool` types, and they will be converted:
