### Node.js WebSocket Client for Ogmios

Source: https://ogmios.dev/getting-started/basics

Example of a Node.js WebSocket client using the 'ws' package to connect to Ogmios, send a JSON-RPC request, and process incoming messages. This demonstrates a basic asynchronous communication pattern.

```javascript
const WebSocket = require('ws');
const client = new WebSocket("ws://localhost:1337");

client.once('open', () => {
    const request = {
        "jsonrpc": "2.0",
        "method": "findIntersection",
        "params": { "points": [ "origin" ] }
    };
    client.send(JSON.stringify(request));
});

client.on('message', function(msg) {
  const response = JSON.parse(msg);

  // do something with 'response'
});

```

### Full Example: Stake Distribution of All Stake Pools

Source: https://ogmios.dev/mini-protocols/local-state-query

This example demonstrates how to retrieve the stake distribution of all stake pools on the Cardano mainnet by first querying the network tip, then acquiring the ledger state, and finally requesting the live stake distribution.

```APIDOC
## WebSocket API Usage

### Description
This section details a practical example of using the WebSocket API to fetch the live stake distribution of all stake pools.

### Method
WebSocket (Client-side implementation)

### Endpoint
`ws://localhost:1337`

### Flow
1. **Open WebSocket Connection:** Establishes a connection to the Ogmios WebSocket server.
2. **Query Network Tip:** Sends a `queryNetwork/tip` request to get the current chain tip.
3. **Acquire Ledger State:** Uses the received tip to request the ledger state using `acquireLedgerState`.
4. **Query Live Stake Distribution:** Once the ledger state is acquired, requests the live stake distribution using `queryLedgerState/liveStakeDistribution`.

### Request Example (Initial Connection)
```javascript
const WebSocket = require('ws');
const client = new WebSocket("ws://localhost:1337");

function rpc(method, params = {}, id) {
    client.send(JSON.stringify({
        jsonrpc: "2.0",
        method,
        params,
        id
    }));
}

client.once('open', () => {
    rpc("queryNetwork/tip", {})
});

client.on('message', function(msg) {
    const response = JSON.parse(msg);

    switch (response.method) {
        case "queryNetwork/tip":
            const point = response.result;
            rpc("acquireLedgerState", { point });
            break;

        case "acquireLedgerState":
            rpc("queryLedgerState/liveStakeDistribution");
            break;

        default:
            console.log(response.result);
            client.close();
            break;
    }
});
```

            "..."
        }
