✅

you can do this adding url_path in the detail_route like:

@detail_route(url_name='chapter', url_path='chapter/(?P<chapter_id>[0-9]+)')
def chapter(self, request, pk=None, chapter_id=None):
   queryset = Chapter.objects.filter(book__pk=pk)
   serializer = ChpaterSerializer(queryset,
                   context={'request':request},
                   many=True)
   return Response(serializer.data)

Note that the name of the url in the default router defaults to the url_path argument if it is provided. So the view name would inlcude the query parameter string. By specifying the url_name argument, you can simplify that. I would recommend to use the method name there, which is the default if url_path is not specified. With that, you can reverse the url with

reverse('book-chapter', kwargs={'pk': 1, 'chapter_id': 4})

  1. For endpoint url as: (using Django REST ViewSets)

{mysite}/users/{pk}/password/{id}

for this to work in my viewsets i did:

class UsersViewSet(viewsets.ModelViewSet):
    queryset = User.objects.all()
    serializer_class = UserSerializer


@detail_route(url_path='password')
def password(self, request,pk=None):
    return HttpResponse("Wow! It Works")

from above you can retrieve id from url via pk variable.

  1. For EndPoint Url as

    {mysite}/users/{pk}/password/{number}

Change the above password method to 

@detail_route(url_path='password/(?P<number>[0-9]+)')
def password(self, request,pk=None, number=None):
    return HttpResponse("Wow! It Again Works")
