    Specifically,

    :meth:`.request_encode_body` is for sending requests whose fields are

    :meth:`.request` is for making any kind of request, it will look up the
    appropriate encoding format and use one of the above two methods to make
    the request.

        Make a request using :meth:`urlopen` with the ``fields`` encoded in
        the body. This is useful for request methods like POST, PUT, PATCH, etc.

        When ``encode_multipart=True`` (default), then
        :meth:`urllib3.filepost.encode_multipart_formdata` is used to encode the
        payload with the appropriate content type. Otherwise
        :meth:`urllib.urlencode` is used with the
        'application/x-www-form-urlencoded' content type.

        Multipart encoding must be used when posting files, and it's reasonably
        safe to use it in other times too. However, it may break request signing,
        such as with OAuth.

        Supports an optional ``fields`` parameter of key/value strings AND
        key/filetuple. A filetuple is a (filename, data) tuple. For example: ::

            fields = {
                'foo': 'bar',
                'fakefile': ('foofile.txt', 'contents of foofile'),
                'realfile': ('barfile.txt', open('realfile').read()),
                'nonamefile': ('contents of nonamefile field'),
            }

        When uploading a file, providing a filename (the first parameter of the
        tuple) is optional but recommended to best mimick behavior of browsers.

        Note that if ``headers`` are supplied, the 'Content-Type' header will be
        overwritten because it depends on the dynamic random boundary string
        which is used to compose the body of the request. The random boundary
        string can be explicitly set with the ``multipart_boundary`` parameter.
