Install PlantUML without GUI
I want to install PlantUML in a Docker container. I tried this:
apt install plantuml
This depends on a full X11 and GTK installation, but I only want to use the command line tool, so I don't want to install unnecessary packages, as it considerably increases image size. Is there any way to install PlantUML without GUI?

plantuml is a jar file so download that and put it somewhere on your system: for instance from sourceforge.net/projects/plantuml/files/plantuml.jar/download

By default, you must have X11 libraries installed. See: Installation notes. Otherwise check how to use Headless Mode in the Java SE Platform.
I think the best is to install X virtual framebuffer, which can performs all graphical operations in virtual memory without showing any screen output.
You can install it by:
sudo apt-get install Xvfb
Then run by:
Xvfb :0 -screen 0 1024x768x16 &
Then to specify which display to use, you need to export DISPLAY, e.g.
export DISPLAY=:0.0 # Select screen 0.
Then you can run plantuml to use that display.
