Check if tweet is favorited by myself | TWEEPY

[altayko]

On Tweepy, I get too many "You have already favorite this tweet" error and when it gives this error repeatedly, the API rate limit error[code 429] is issued.

Before attempting to favorite the tweet to resolve this issue, before favorite the tweet I want to check if the tweet is not favourited by me. But I haven't been able to enter the while / else command in my code, I would appreciate if anyone could help.

I tried the code below and added the part "favorited = status.favorited" where am I doing wrong?

1 2 3 4 5 6 7 8 9 10 11 12 13 14 15 16 17 18 19 20 21 22 23 24 25

import tweepy import time   auth = tweepy.OAuthHandler('secret_credentials','secret_credentials') auth.set_access_token('access_token','access_token')   api = tweepy.API(auth, wait_on_rate_limit=True, wait_on_rate_limit_notify=True) user = api.me()     for tweet in tweepy.Cursor(api.search, q="books", result_type="recent").items(70):      status = api.get_status(tweet)    favorited = status.favorited            if favorited == False:       try:         print('Tweet Liked')         tweet.favorite()         time.sleep(10)     except tweepy.TweepError as e:         print(e.reason)     except StopIteration:         break
