First of all httpbin returns 405 status for POST /cookies In [7]: requests.post("http://httpbin.org/cookies/set?name=dfd").text
Out[7]: '<!DOCTYPE HTML PUBLIC "-//W3C//DTD HTML 3.2 Final//EN">\n<title>405 Method Not Allowed</title>\n<h1>Method Not Allowed</h1>\n<p>The method is not allowed for the requested URL.</p>\n'Also, did you add 'POST' to In [14]: requests_cache.install_cache(allowable_methods=('GET', 'POST'))
In [15]: requests.post("http://httpbin.org/post", cookies={"foo": "bar"}).from_cache
Out[15]: False

Yeah I did add POST to allowable methods. Is there a httpbin for sending a POST that sets cookies? |

Looks like no. But check my example. It sets cookies while requesting http://httpbin.org/post |

You are right, I figured out what my problem was. When passing in a dictionary as any argument, the order is not defined. So when you do the same post twice, with the same options, it can be cached differently because the order changes for the dictionary. I got the idea from here: http://cachecontrol.readthedocs.org/en/latest/tips.html#query-string-params So to fix I turned the dictionary into a list of lists and passed that in sorted: s.post('url', sorted([key, value] for key, value in options.items())) |
This will not cache, for some reason
