How can I auto start mysqld

I tried following https://stackoverflow.com/q/26476391/631619 but it didn't help

It seems like I have a ownership/permission problem, possibly related to from having installed mysql on this machine for a different user account.

I uninstalled and reinstalled but still get 

$ brew install mysql
==> Downloading https://homebrew.bintray.com/bottles/mysql-5.6.27.yosemite.bottle.tar.gz
Already downloaded: /Library/Caches/Homebrew/mysql-5.6.27.yosemite.bottle.tar.gz
==> Pouring mysql-5.6.27.yosemite.bottle.tar.gz
==> Caveats
A "/etc/my.cnf" from another install may interfere with a Homebrew-built
server starting up correctly.

To connect:
    mysql -uroot

To have launchd start mysql at login:
  ln -sfv /usr/local/opt/mysql/*.plist ~/Library/LaunchAgents
Then to load mysql now:
  launchctl load ~/Library/LaunchAgents/homebrew.mxcl.mysql.plist
Or, if you don't want/need launchctl, you can just run:
  mysql.server start

WARNING: launchctl will fail when run under tmux.

$

I can start mysqld manually however, ie..

$ mysqld

and then in another window

$ mysql -uroot

mysql>

Also fyi

$ l /usr/local/bin/mysql
lrwxr-xr-x  1 pengo  admin  32 Nov  7 16:55 /usr/local/bin/mysql@ -> ../Cellar/mysql/5.6.27/bin/mysql

Do I perhaps need to chown whoami for additional files?

I tried adding

export PATH=${PATH}:/usr/local/Cellar/mysql/5.6.27/bin/mysqld

to my .bashrc based on having

$ l /usr/local/Cellar/mysql/5.6.27/bin/mysqld -r-xr-xr-x  1 pengo  admin  
11948736 Nov  7 16:54 /usr/local/Cellar/mysql/5.6.27/bin/mysqld*

but I still got the same errors.

Looks like adding the path to to my .bashrc was probably the solution.

export PATH=${PATH}:/usr/local/Cellar/mysql/5.6.27/bin/mysqld

I also need to exit a current mysql session that was open
