Well, when it is not ensurable then Puppet expects that a configuration 
artefact is always present.
You then just have the getter and setter for the type parameters and maybe some 
helper methods (API calls, data transformation).

example:

mytype { 'title':
  config1 => 'data',
  config2 => 'data',
}

provider:

def config1
  # write code to read data
end

def config1=(value)
  # code to set/write data
end
