Django rest framework: query parameters in detail_route

Question

I have following ViewSet:

class BookViewSet(DefaultsMixin, viewsets.ModelViewSet):
   queryset = Book.objects.all()
   serializer_class = BookSerializer

   @det         


        

Answer 1

you can do this adding url_path in the detail_route like:

@detail_route(url_name='chapter', url_path='chapter/(?P[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})
