How to print post data when using requests?

import requests
import logging
logging.basicConfig(level=logging.DEBUG)
r = requests.post('http://httpbin.org/post'
        , headers = {'h1': 'v1'}
        , data = {'key': 'value'}
        )
print(r)

When I run the above code, I see the following output. But the detailed info of the data posted is not shown. Is there a way to configure the log so that what has been posted will also been shown?

DEBUG:urllib3.connectionpool:Starting new HTTP connection (1): httpbin.org
DEBUG:urllib3.connectionpool:http://httpbin.org:80 "POST /post HTTP/1.1" 200 497
<Response [200]>

Since urllib3 uses http.client.HTTPConnection, its debugging output can be enabled by debuglevel = 1.

import requests
import logging
logging.basicConfig(level=logging.DEBUG)

import http.client
http.client.HTTPConnection.debuglevel = 1

r = requests.post('http://httpbin.org/post'
        , headers = {'h1': 'v1'}
        , data = {'key': 'value'}
        )

DEBUG:urllib3.connectionpool:Starting new HTTP connection (1): httpbin.org:80
send: b'POST /post HTTP/1.1\r\nHost: httpbin.org\r\nUser-Agent: python-requests/2.25.1\r\nAccept-Encoding: gzip, deflate\r\nAccept: */*\r\nConnection: keep-alive\r\nh1: v1\r\nContent-Length: 9\r\nContent-Type: application/x-www-form-urlencoded\r\n\r\n'

Maybe you can use some asynchronous way to get text even still doing request. You can use this article for references

This is what I like to use:

import json

print(json.dumps(r.json(), indent=4))

This is the type of question you can answer via documentation, you could check type(r) then google that class and look at its properties/methods.
