Check free disk space for current partition in bash

Yes:

df -k .

for the current directory.

df -k /some/dir

if you want to check a specific directory.

You might also want to check out the stat(1) command if your system has it. You can specify output formats to make it easier for your script to parse. Here’s a little example:

$ echo $(($(stat -f --format="%a*%S" .)))
