don't know about the java command but I suspect some variation of this will do 
it. (%x[ ] captures the output of command(s) executed within the square 
brackets)

Facter.add("ruby_version") do
  setcode do
    ruby_version = "unknown"
    rubypath = %x[facter rubysitedir]
    ruby_version = %x[ruby -v | cut -f2 -d ' ']
    ruby_version
  end
end
