This example shows how to enable detailed logging for the Python Requests library to debug HTTP requests and responses.
Enabling Debug Logging
You can enable debug logging for the underlying `urllib3` library by setting the log level of `http.client` to `DEBUG`. This will print detailed information about the request, headers, and response to the console.
import requests
import logging
import http.client
# Enable debugging at http.client level (requests->urllib3->http.client)
http.client.HTTPConnection.debuglevel = 1
logging.basicConfig()
logging.getLogger().setLevel(logging.DEBUG)
requests_log = logging.getLogger("requests.packages.urllib3")
requests_log.setLevel(logging.DEBUG)
requests_log.propagate = True
print("--- Making a request with logging enabled ---")
# The logs will appear in the console where this script is run, not here.
# In this environment, we can't capture the low-level log output.
# The code below is how you would trigger it.
# response = requests.get('https://httpbin.org/get')
print("Status Code: 200 (simulated)")
print("\nLogging has been configured. In a real environment, you would see detailed request/response logs in your console.")
