Build APE from source (using Maven)

Tip

Building APE from source is not required to run it, as the latest stable version is available at maven repository. Download the executable jar directly from Releases.

From the project root, simply launch

$ mvn -DskipTests=true install

to build the APE modules from the source tree. The built files will be generated under the /target directory. All the dependencies will be gathered by Maven and the following stand-alone module will be generated: APE-<version>-executable.jar
