Im trying to deploy php files to a linux VM. The logic seems simple but I seem to be missing something along line. I have a bitbucket repository, and everything(Files/Folders) within that repository I want to deploy the VM (maintaining the File structure). I have an envronment set up. The hook to my bitbucket repository is set up and added an application (with the name of my source repo) to the deployment settings but get no artifacts. Using this as a reference http://help.appveyor.com/discussions/questions/809-just-copying-files-and-folders-no-build

Any help will be greatly appreciated.

   To put entire repo to a zip and upload it as artifact:

   build_script:
   - 7z a myapp.zip %APPVEYOR_BUILD_FOLDER%\*
   - appveyor PushArtifact myapp.zip

   Is compressing compulsory or can I publish without compressing?

   If you are going to use built-in FTP deployment provider then it deploys from artifact (zip package) only. If you can use some sort of command-line FTP or anything else then you can skip creating artifact.
