Check if no URL parameters been provided

I need to check an incoming URL in my view, if any parameter has been provided.

I've already checked various approaches with the request.GET option but did not find a suitable way. Most of them test for a defined parameter to be set, or none, like:

if self.request.GET.get('param'):

But what I need is the result when the URL is missing any parameter, like:

http://myapp/app/

instead of

http://myapp/app/?param=any

to set the queryset to a default.

The documentation specifies that request.GET is a QueryDict. Therefore, you should be able to check whether is empty by the number of keys.

if len(self.request.GET.keys()) == 0:
    print("There are no parameters")
