List all repeater subfield values for a post (preferably comma separated)

This seems like such an easy thing to accomplish, so I’m sure I’m just missing it somehow.

What I’m looking to do is list all repeater field (line_chart_all_months) subfield values (line_chart_month) as a comma separated array (each value in single quotes).

For example, each subfield is a text input with a value such as Aug-22 (a total of 12, ending in Jul-23). The desired return needs to look like this:

‘Aug-22′,’Sep-22′,’Oct-22′,’Nov-22′,’Dec-22′,’Jan-23′,’Feb-23′,’Mar-23′,’Apr-23′,’May-23′,’Jun-23′,’Jul-23’

How is this accomplished?

I’ve tried:

<?php if(have_rows('line_chart_all_months') ): while(have_rows('line_chart_all_months') ) : the_row(); the_sub_field('line_chart_month');
endwhile; else : endif; ?>

But it returns this:
Aug-22Sep-22Oct-22Nov-22Dec-22Jan-23Feb-23Mar-23Apr-23May-23Jun-23Jul-23

How do I get those separated with commas and single quotes for each value like above?

Thanks kindly in advance.

The very last value should have no comma.

<?php 
  $dates = array();
  if (have_rows('line_chart_all_months')) {
    while (have_rows('line_chart_all_months')) {
      the_row();
      $dates[] = get_sub_field('line_chart_month');
    }
  }
  echo implode(', ', $dates);
?>

Thanks very much for the help John!

This almost gets me there, however, I’m missing the quotes around each month. Currently what gets returned is this:

Aug-22, Sep-22, Oct-22, Nov-22, Dec-22, Jan-23, Feb-23, Mar-23, Apr-23, May-23, Jun-23, Jul-23

However, I need it to have quotes around each date as well (with the comma outside) like this:

‘Aug-22′,’Sep-22′,’Oct-22′,’Nov-22′,’Dec-22′,’Jan-23′,’Feb-23′,’Mar-23′,’Apr-23′,’May-23′,’Jun-23′,’Jul-23’

echo "'".implode("', '", $dates)."'";
