How to run a specific command by using Jongo?

Question

I'm using TokuMx in order to organize a transaction. It has specific commands to do so.

I tried to run db.runCommand("beginTransaction") in Mongo shell. It worked well.

However, when I did the same thing in Jongo:

PlayJongo.jongo().runCommand("beginTransaction");

It gave me [error] play - Cannot invoke the action, eventually got an error: java.lang.IllegalArgumentException: Cannot parse query: beginTransaction

What did I do wrong?

EDIT

public static boolean buyProduct(User buyer, User seller, int accountIndex, float productPrice){
    boolean isSuccess = false;
    PlayJongo.jongo().runCommand("{beginTransaction : 1}");
    try{
        // Deposit money to seller
        seller.getAccounts().get(0).deposit(productPrice);
        UserRepository.update(seller);
        // Withdraw money from buyer
        buyer.getAccounts().get(accountIndex).withdraw(productPrice);
        UserRepository.update(buyer);
        throw new Exception();
        //isSuccess = true;
    }
    catch (Exception e){
        PlayJongo.jongo().runCommand("{rollbackTransaction : 1 }");
        isSuccess = false;
    }

    return isSuccess;
}

I'm not a jongo expert but I do work on tokumx and I just checked the jongo docs. I think you want

PlayJongo.jongo().runCommand("{beginTransaction:1}");
