Just use the ant builder with custom build.xml file

go to the location of build.xml file through terminal after that hit the command.

 $ant yourTargetName

Where your target name is declared in you build.xml file.

<?xml version="1.0"?>
  <project name="Project Name" default="default" basedir=".">


    <taskdef name="bundleapp"
     classname="com.oracle.appbundler.AppBundlerTask"
     classpath="lib/appbundler-1.0.jar" />



     <target name="bundle-Target Name">
       <bundleapp outputdirectory="."
           name="Your Project Name"
           displayname="yourProjectDisplayName"
           identifier="yourMainClassName"
           shortversion="1.0"
           applicationCategory="public.app-category.developer-tools"
           mainclassname="yourMainClassName">

           <classpath file="/yourJarFileLocation"/>
           <option value="-Dapple.laf.useScreenMenuBar=true"/>
