So I'm asking if there's a best practices method of creating foobar

nothing but run create_resources(foobar::instance), modifying the module
and then submitting a pull request, or...?
Thanks,

The community answer so far has been to wrap it in a profile class. A
wrapper classes solves the problem of the lookup for creating the
instances and anything else that might need to be done per instance that
is unique to your environment.
I did a talk earlier this year talking about what goes into profile
classes and what problems they solve. Full txt of the talk is also in
the repo.
