Could someone explain to me where I can find information about why this works in Django? I did some research in the official documentation and couldn’t find anything.

from django.db import models

class Document(models.Model):
    id = models.IntegerField(primary_key=True)
    name = models.CharField(max_length=100)

# Query using an integer
document1 = Document.objects.get(id=1)

# Query using a string that can be converted to an integer
document2 = Document.objects.get(id='1')

# Both queries should yield the same result

I check this pages in the official documentation:

• https://docs.djangoproject.com/en/5.0/ref/models/fields/#model-field-types
• https://docs.djangoproject.com/en/5.0/topics/db/queries/
• https://docs.djangoproject.com/en/5.0/ref/models/lookups/
