How can I customize Password Confirm View when received Email Django Rest Auth

I am implementing Password reset by using django Rest Auth, two thing I requires when request hits from reactjs frontend I want the email to be customize I want to use password_reset_email.html template.Firstly I used simple PasswordResetView and I got the email but it sends me to native Rest UI PasswordConfirmView.

I want,when User hit request it should use my templates which are, password_reset.html,password_reset_confirm.html,password_reset_done.html... which we make in our templates/appname directory my try:

urls.py:

   urlpatterns=[
url(
    r'^rest-auth/password/reset/$',
    PasswordResetView.as_view(),
    name='password_reset',
),
url(
    r'^rest-auth/password/reset/confirm/'
    r'(?P<uidb64>[0-9A-Za-z_\-]+)/(?P<token>[0-9A-Za-z]{1,13}-[0-9A-Za-z]{1,20})/$',
    PasswordResetConfirmView.as_view(),
    name='password_reset_confirm'),
    ]

authsystem/templates:

password_reset_confirm.html:

          <!DOCTYPE html>
    <html lang="en">
      <head>
      <meta charset="UTF-8">
       <title>Title</title>
      </head>
      <body>
        {% if validlink %}
           <h3>Change password</h3>
              <form method="post">
               {% csrf_token %}
              {{ form.as_p }}
  <button type="submit">Change password</button>
</form>
   {% else %}
    <p>
  The password reset link was invalid, possibly because it has already been used.
  Please request a new password reset.
</p>
 {% endif %}
</body>
 </html>

I know the above approach is less but I want the direction how can I make it work I don't want to use rest auth built-in UI, when request hits from react side,How can I use templates when the email is sent,when I click on link in email I want to show my template, token and uid should pass from templates,I have all the templates ready but don't know how to use with Django Rest Auth.

In general, if you want to override templates from a package, make sure you check first the path of template used in the view. E.g. in the rest-auth package (if you didn't install allauth), password reset is handled by the default Django PasswordResetConfirmView (django.contrib.auth.views), which uses the template 'registration/password_reset_confirm.html', which for some reason resides in django/contrib/admin/templates/registration.

So the way templates are loaded, if in any of your apps, you have this template, it'll be loaded before the one from Django. Just create authsystem/templates/registration/password_reset_confirm.html and that's the one that will be used instead of the default one inside django/contrib/admin.

If you're using allauth, then the view is PasswordResetFromKeyView (allauth.account.views) and the corresponding template account/password_reset_from_key.html. Therefore, creating this template in authsystem/templates/account/password_reset_from_key.html will override the one from allauth.
