requests.cookies.RequestsCookieJar

requests.cookies.RequestsCookieJar(policy=None)

Compatibility class; is a http.cookiejar.CookieJar, but exposes a dict interface.

This is the CookieJar we create by default for requests and sessions that don't specify one, since some clients may expect response.cookies and session.cookies to support dict operations.

Requests does not use the dict interface internally; it's just for compatibility with external client code. All requests code should work out of the box with externally provided instances of CookieJar, e.g. LWPCookieJar and FileCookieJar.

Unlike a regular CookieJar, this class is pickleable.

requests.cookies.CookieConflictError

requests.cookies.CookieConflictError(/, *args, **kwargs)

There are two cookies that meet the criteria specified in the cookie jar. Use .get and .set and include domain and path args in order to be more specific.
