[Python] Get telegram user status with telethon

im trying to create a python script that checks wether the user is online or not. I succeed making a season between Telegram and python using telethon but Im really having a bad time getting the correct syntax to get one of my contacts status. Any help will be appricated !

from telethon.tl.types import UserStatusOnline, UserStatusOffline, ContactStatus
from telethon.sync import TelegramClient
from datetime import datetime

### Client Side ###
phone = "+"
api_id =
api_hash = ""
client = TelegramClient(phone, api_id, api_hash)
client.connect()
if not client.is_user_authorized():
client.send_code_request(phone)
client.sign_in(phone, input('Enter the code: '))
else:
print("Logging Complete")

account = client.get_entity('chats_name')
if isinstance(account.status, UserStatusOffline):
if contact.online != False:
contact.online = False
event.respond(f'{utc2localtime(account.status.was_online).strftime(DATETIME_FORMAT)}: {contact.name} went offline.')
elif contact.last_offline != account.status.was_online:
if contact.last_offline is not None:
event.respond(f'{utc2localtime(account.status.was_online).strftime(DATETIME_FORMAT)}: {contact.name} went offline after being online for short time.')
else:
event.respond(f'{utc2localtime(account.status.was_online).strftime(DATETIME_FORMAT)}: {contact.name} went offline.')
contact.last_offline = account.status.was_online
elif isinstance(account.status, UserStatusOnline):
if contact.online != True:
contact.online = True
event.respond(f'{datetime.now().strftime(DATETIME_FORMAT)}: {contact.name} went online.')
else:
if contact.online != False:
contact.online = False
event.respond(f'{datetime.now().strftime(DATETIME_FORMAT)}: {contact.name} went offline.')
contact.last_offline = None
