I just want to add that Julias's answer is correct, but now it's deprecated. You could use new API (Document class is from package org.bson):

MongoDatabase database = client.getDatabase("admin");
Document documentA = database.runCommand(new Document("enablesharding", "test"));
Document documentB = database.runCommand(
        new Document("shardcollection", "testDB.x").append("key", new Document("userId", 1)));
