title: Slim PHP and GET Parameters
body: <p>I'm playing with Slim PHP as a framework for a RESTful API, and so far it's great. Super easy to work with, but I do have one question I can't find the answer to. How do I grab GET params from the URL in Slim PHP?</p>
  
  <p>For example, if I wanted to use the following:</p>
  
  <pre><code>http://api.example.com/dataset/schools?zip=99999&amp;radius=5
  </code></pre>
  
  <p>A case of the Mondays? Am I overthinking it? Thanks in advance!</p>
