Monitor database file size

Is there a best practice for monitoring how much space is free in a database
file? I can get this info for the log file using the performance monitor
and send me a message when the free space is low. I don't want to have to
manually check this everyday, so if there is an automated means that would
be great.
Thanks.Hi,

monitoring.
