mysqldump: command not found XAMPP

I'm trying to use a script in grunt and node to dump a database. When I run It return me this error:

/bin/sh: mysqldump: command not found

I have already contacted the creator of the script and we have understand that the problem is the configuration of my localhost.

I'm using XAMPP 1.8.2-3 in OSX

How can I use correctly mysqldump

Thanks

Try:

export PATH=$PATH:/Applications/XAMPP/bin

Then run your script.

So you don't have to do this in the future, check your .profile file in your home directory. There should be a line that starts with export PATH, something like (only an example):

export PATH=/opt/local/bin:/opt/local/sbin:$PATH

Just add your XAMPP path to it:

export PATH=/opt/local/bin:/opt/local/sbin:/Applications/XAMPP/bin:$PATH

The different directories are separated by colons only, don't add any whitespace.
