-A few noteworthy features:
+## implementing child providers:
+
+
+The ini_setting class can be overridden by child providers in order to implement the management of ini settings for a specific configuration file.
+
+In order to implement this, you will need to specify your own Type (as shown below). This type needs to implement a namevar (name), and a property called value:
+
+
+  example:
+
+    #my_module/lib/puppet/type/glance_api_config.rb
+    Puppet::Type.newtype(:glance_api_config) do
+      ensurable
+      newparam(:name, :namevar => true) do
+        desc 'Section/setting name to manage from glance-api.conf'
+        # namevar should be of the form section/setting
+        newvalues(/\S+\/\S+/)
+      end
+      newproperty(:value) do
+        desc 'The value of the setting to be defined.'
+        munge do |v|
+          v.to_s.strip
+        end
+      end
+    end
+
+This type also must have a provider that utilizes the ini_setting provider as its parent:
+
+  example:
+
+    # my_module/lib/puppet/provider/glance_api_config/ini_setting.rb
+    Puppet::Type.type(:glance_api_config).provide(
+      :ini_setting,
+      # set ini_setting as the parent provider
+      :parent => Puppet::Type.type(:ini_setting).provider(:ruby)
+    ) do
+      # implement section as the first part of the namevar
+      def section
+        resource[:name].split('/', 2).first
+      end
+      def setting
+        # implement setting as the second part of the namevar
+        resource[:name].split('/', 2).last
+      end
+      # hard code the file path (this allows purging)
+      def self.file_path
+        '/etc/glance/glance-api.conf'
+      end
+    end
+
+
+Now, the individual settings of the /etc/glance/glance-api.conf file can be managed as individual resources:
+
+    glance_api_config { 'HEADER/important_config':
+      value => 'secret_value',
+    }
+
+Provided that self.file_path has been implemented, you can purge with the following puppet syntax:
+
+    resources { 'glance_api_config'
+      purge => true,
+    }
+
+If the above code is added, then the resulting configured file will only contain lines implemented as Puppet resources
+
+
+## A few noteworthy features:
 
  * The module tries *hard* not to manipulate your file any more than it needs to.
    In most cases, it should leave the original whitespace, comments, ordering,
