    ``HuggingFaceLocalChatGenerator``, ``ExtractiveReader``, ``TransformersZeroShotDocumentClassifier``,
    ``TransformersTextRouter``, and ``TransformersZeroShotTextRouter``
    have been moved out of Haystack into the ``transformers-haystack`` integration package.
    Install the new package with ``pip install transformers-haystack`` and update your imports.

    Before:

    .. code:: python

      from haystack.components.classifiers import TransformersZeroShotDocumentClassifier
      from haystack.components.generators.chat import HuggingFaceLocalChatGenerator
      from haystack.components.readers import ExtractiveReader
      from haystack.components.routers import TransformersTextRouter, TransformersZeroShotTextRouter

    After:

    .. code:: python

      from haystack_integrations.components.classifiers.transformers import TransformersZeroShotDocumentClassifier
      from haystack_integrations.components.generators.transformers import TransformersChatGenerator
      from haystack_integrations.components.readers.transformers import TransformersExtractiveReader
      from haystack_integrations.components.routers.transformers import (
          TransformersTextRouter,
          TransformersZeroShotTextRouter,
      )
  - |
    The legacy ``TransformersSimilarityRanker`` component has been removed.
    Use ``SentenceTransformersSimilarityRanker`` instead, which provides the same functionality
    along with async support.

    Before:

    .. code:: python

      from haystack.components.rankers import TransformersSimilarityRanker

      ranker = TransformersSimilarityRanker(model="cross-encoder/ms-marco-MiniLM-L-6-v2")

    After:

    .. code:: python

      from haystack.components.rankers import SentenceTransformersSimilarityRanker

      ranker = SentenceTransformersSimilarityRanker(model="cross-encoder/ms-marco-MiniLM-L-6-v2")
