I think the variable is called PGPASSWORD. Example backup script bellow:
#!/bin/sh
umask 0177
PATH="/bin:/sbin:/usr/bin:/usr/sbin"
TODAY=$(date +%a)
DUMPDIR="/backup/"
echo "DB backup start: `date`"
# Do not suck all CPU time...
renice 20 $$
DATA="pgsql"
PGSQL="/usr/local/pgsql/bin/psql"
PGDUMP="/usr/local/pgsql/bin/pg_dump"
PGUSER="pgsql"
PGPASSWORD="blahblah"
export PGUSER PGPASSWORD
DBTYPE="postgres"
OUT="${DUMPDIR}/${TODAY}/${DBTYPE}"
[ -d ${OUT} ] || mkdir -p ${OUT}
DBS=$($PGSQL -tq -d template1 -c "select datname from pg_database" | \
grep -v template)
for DB in $DBS
do
echo "Dumping postgres db: $DB"
$PGDUMP -D $DB -Z 5 -f $OUT/${DB}.sql.gz
done
