Markus Israelsson <markus.israelsson at surgicalscience.com> added the comment:

The way I read the documentation for add_cookie_header is:

These methods must exist in the Request object:
- get_full_url()
- get_host()
- get_type()
- unverifiable... and so on.


The documentation for the request objects claims however that:
These methods are removed since version 3.4:
- add_data
- has_data
- get_data
- get_type
- get_host - This method , and some others, are listed as requirements for the add_cookie_header and extract_cookies functions. See list above or link I posted above to the correct places in the docs.


So it is only the documentation that is inconsistent. Not the code.
Unless, like I said, I misunderstand something in the documentation.
