x = requests.post(url, data=data) print x.cookies I used the requests library to get some cookies from a website, but I can only get the cookies from the Response, how to get the cookies from the Request? Thanks!

Alternatively, you can use requests.Session and observe cookies before and after a request:
>>> import requests >>> session = requests.Session() >>> print(session.cookies.get_dict()) {} >>> response = session.get(') >>> print(session.cookies.get_dict()) {'PREF': 'ID=5514c728c9215a9a:FF=0:TM=1406958091:LM=1406958091:S=KfAG0U9jYhrB0XNf', 'NID': '67=TVMYiq2wLMNvJi5SiaONeIQVNqxSc2RAwVrCnuYgTQYAHIZAGESHHPL0xsyM9EMpluLDQgaj3db_V37NjvshV-eoQdA8u43M8UwHMqZdL-S2gjho8j0-Fe1XuH5wYr9v'} If you need the path and thedomain for each cookie, which get_dict() is not exposes, you can parse the cookies manually, for instance:
[ {'name': c.name, 'value': c.value, 'domain': c.domain, 'path': c.path} for c in session.cookies ]
