Just read this: https://stackoverflow.com/a/46783596
You can just use
requests.utils
(and other submodules, I've seen annother one for functions included in urllib.parse but I don't remember it) instead of urllib.parse in most cases I think.(and it does not requires requests.utils to be imported because importing requests also imports requests.utils)
NOTE: The functions are comming right from the URLLIB package, so the actual documentation is in URLLIB for some (not all) of the function of this submodule of requests.
