Description:
 def prepare(self, method=None, url=None, headers=None, files=None, data=None, params=None, auth=None, cookies=None, hooks=None, json=None):
 """Prepares the entire request with the given parameters."""


        self.prepare_method(method)
        self.prepare_url(url, params)
        self.prepare_headers(headers)
        self.prepare_cookies(cookies)
        self.prepare_body(data, files, json)
        self.prepare_auth(auth, url)

        # Note that prepare_auth must be last to enable authentication schemes
        # such as OAuth to work on a fully prepared request.

        # This MUST go after prepare_auth. Authenticators could add a hook
        self.prepare_hooks(hooks)
