Marcello's answer worked for me, but I would propose a more convenient solution in the form of a wrapper-script to do all the dirty work:

#!/usr/bin/env bash
arduino-builder \
  -compile \
  -hardware /Applications/Arduino.app/Contents/Java/hardware \
  -tools /Applications/Arduino.app/Contents/Java/tools \
  -fqbn arduino:avr:uno \
  -libraries ../libraries/ \
  -prefs=compiler.path=/Applications/Arduino.app/Contents/Java/hardware/tools/avr/bin/ \
  -prefs=tools.ctags.path=/Applications/Arduino.app/Contents/Java/tools-builder/ctags/5.8-arduino11 \
  -verbose \
  SimpleTimer.ino

I had to put in a couple fixes before the above command worked.

  • In file /Applications/Arduino.app/Contents/Java/hardware/arduino/avr/platform.txt change this property: compiler.path=/Applications/Arduino.app/Contents/Java/hardware/tools/avr/bin/

  • In file /Applications/Arduino.app//Contents/Java/hardware/platform.txt change this property: tools.ctags.path=/Applications/Arduino.app/Contents/Java/tools-builder/ctags/5.8-arduino11
