Since net.ltgt.apt version 0.11 (Feb 2018) you can just apply the plugin net.ltgt.apt-idea to build.gradle:

plugins {
    id "net.ltgt.apt-idea" version "0.18"
}

apply plugin: 'idea'
apply plugin: 'java'

dependencies {
    compile             "com.google.dagger:dagger:2.17"
    annotationProcessor "com.google.dagger:dagger-compiler:2.17"
}
