In short, Config::Crontab reads and writes crontab(5) files (and does a little pretty-printing too) using objects. The general idea is that you create a Config::Crontab object and associate it with a file (if unassociated, it will work over a pipe to crontab -l). From there, you can add lines to your crontab object, change existing line attributes, and write everything back to file.
