Disable Cookie Handling

[brianjpetersen]

I'd like to disable cookie processing in the general case for the session but to allow them to be set for requests with redirects. For example, a request to httpbin.org/cookies/set?a=1 results in a redirect to httpbin.org/cookies with the appropriate Set-Cookie header. If I use a custom cookie jar (per Issue #957) that implements update_cookies as a no-op, when the redirect is followed, the cookies set in upstream requests aren't applied during subsequent redirects.

Aside from disabling redirects, setting cookies manually in the case of a redirect and following it manually, is there a way to deal with cookies more granularly than on a per-session basis?

Maybe create a new session for every request?

Thanks - that could work, although I'd lose the benefits of connection pooling, right?

you can use custom connection object and pass connector_owner=False to Client session.

Ahh, awesome. Thanks so much!
